Final project is a major portion of the course. Its main purpose is to give you hands-on experience applying some of the design concepts you will learnin class. You will complete several assignments which will lead into your final project. Thisfirst assignmentis the start of the semester’s project. There will be multiple project assignments. The purpose is building a small productthat is interesting enough to last the rest of the semester but is not so complicated that you’ll have to work 24 hours a day on it. The first step towards the final project is to identify a system that you would like to develop and identify the users and their needs that this system will meet. Find something that excites you.But as the first step, remember that users are always central to any interface design, therefore it is imperative to identify the users’ characteristics early in the design process.
For Project Assignment 1. Complete the following: 1.Identify an app(iphone/android)or websitethat you always wanted to develop but you did not have the time to develop. 2.Determine the task(s) that the systemwill do. Normally, this should be the automation of a task that users now do manually. Devise specific, concrete examples.3.Determine the system’s users. Identify specific people, even for an interface to beused by the general public.4.Include 3 personas (personas are fictional). –Use one of the tools discussed in the lecture.
5.During your interview determine:a.Whatis the user’s relevant work?b.What tools, if any, are currently used?c.What works well, and why?d.What are the problems that the new appor websitewill address?6.Turn in: a.A report with a cover sheet containing:i.Your nameii.Title of the Projectiii.Name of the course: CEN3722iv.Professor Name: Dr. Giti Javidiv.Name of the assignment: Final Project Assignment 1vi.Date: Fall 2021b.Descriiption of the Project: The first paragraphdescribing the app or webpage and its functions. What is the purpose? What tasks will it do?How will this system benefit the users? Is there a need for such system?c.User profiling: Identify the characteristics of your user population, such as age, occupation, gender, race, computer experience (novice, intermediate, expert), computer use habits, etc.If you have multiple user classes, identify each one. d.User Persona: Create at least 3 personas to represent your user populations.
