Our future task analysis and approach to the project from here on out will more than likely focus less more on the academic story tourist group and general visitor group, and more on other user groupsthe tourist guides. The goals/interests of both these user groups are the least aligned with our own personal interests. The academic tourist group's goals/needs may be to similar to our own interests. The general visitor's goals/needs either cannot be solved by a UI or else can be addressed if we focus our attention on the goals/needs of other user groups. The parent tourist group's interests either overlapped with the story tourists or academic tourists, or were entirely dependent on whether their child's needs were met (which is hard to achieve through a UI unless the child is in the story tourist group). We also felt as though the story tourist's needs are the least met during college visits/tours, and would be the most interesting to tackle through the UI. Regarding the tourist office and story tourists pair versus the tourist guide and story tourists pair, we felt as though the needs of the tourist guide were most compatible with the needs of the story tourist, and that the collective problem of tacking both their needs through a UI would be fun to take on.
