Usability Test Notes

User 1, Iteration 1

Task 1: 

  • Wonders if 7.012 can be offered in the spring, we blank out the ineligible semesters. 
  • Spends time looking through her classes, 
  • User noted "This is Fun!" 
  • "Can I add multiple electives at the same time?" -- currently? No. Consider changing. 
  • "Are Prerequisites are strict?" Consider how this affects schedule. 
  • Selects a few specific AUS/Labs, but doesn't assign some of them. Likes the flexibility. 
  • "Is there an easy way to know that 813 is an AUS/LAB?" -- currently? No. Coming in future iteration. Need a way to indicate multiple requirement fulfillment.

Task 12: 

  • There is a conflict between two classes.  She would like to keep it; doesn't attend lectures.  That should be allowed; is realistic for how some people pick their classes.
  • Uses radio button to put in class recitations.  Would like to see recitations even though they may conflict with a class.
  • Wants an indication in the class lists that displays which ones are completed and those that have the recitation still need to be decided.
  • Wants a save or done button from the current semester schedule; ensure that it saves as she transitions but yet would like can transition without saving.
  • For the conflicts, she would like to see conflicts in the four-year plan view for the current semester.  From there she would like to quickly see the conflict and see if she wants to fix it or not.
  • If there is a conflict that she must change, would go to search for a new class, move it to class list, then put in the recitation if necessary.
  • Would like to see a modal screen of the four-year plan in order to rearrange that in case of conflict.  And those changes reloaded into the current view and list of classes.

Task 3:

  • Knows how to see friends schedule by clicking her name; would like to see the schedule in the four-year plan too.
  • Would like to see comments of the classes from friends and only those that are useful.  Would want to see comments up-vote and down-vote to arrange comments.
  • Would care more about friend's four-year plan over the current semester.  To know who she can do homework with, does not care so much when they are taking their classes.  Acknowledges that other people may want that information.
