Katrina’s primary role is to research on existing products and their incorporation with the existing human communication system. A thorough understanding of past designs is required to facilitate a better model for users. Her secondary roles are editing the reports and preparing a PowerPoint for the final presentation. Vania’s primary role is to research on visibility, feedback, and constraints under the design principles listed by Donald Norman. Her secondary roles are to research on possible technical issues, the users’ experience, and system functionality under the usability goals. Calvin’s primary goal is to research on accessibility concerns for all users and statistical data on the environment in the existing systems. Quantitative research and qualitative research are important instruments to analyze the causes of the problems users encounter. His secondary role is to research on the layout, task factors, and productivity factors under the usability goals. Camille’s primary goal is to research on the organizational, environmental and health and safety factors. Her secondary roles include editing the reports and designing the graphic layout. Kai’s primary goal is to research on mapping, consistency, and affordance listed in the design principles. His secondary goal is to re-design the existing system.

A wikispace for the project was created to allow sharing of information and instant editing and feedback. We will mainly contribute our ideas on the wikispace along with group discussions. Group meetings are also hold in the library for a more free-talk style conversation. Emails and phone numbers are exchanged for scheduling meetings. Since the project is due in a short amount of time, our group will come together as much as we can. Each person has their roles due dates assigned to them as to when they should post up their information on the wikispace. We also plan to get feedback from the professor for our ideas and any concerns we may have.

Each member contributed to this document on the divided roles and goals for the project. Thorough understanding on expectancy is shared among members. Roles are assigned according to each member’s specialty. Each member also contributed their ideas for the assignment and any concerns we may have during the discussion. Contact information of the members is provided for the benefit of the group and for the professor.
