Introduction

Station 4: Evaluate the Process

The final station is designed to allow the teams to evaluate and review the process they just completed. They are given a self-evaluation form that contains questions about how their design is tied to the selected group of users and its characteristics.

During the final station, each team pastes the one-page output of each station on a horizontal game board. The board is divided as if it was formed by four pieces of a puzzle: the photos of the target users and key characteristics, required characteristics of the artifact according to the user analysis and the methods used, the lo-fi prototype, and the results of evaluating the first prototype.

Game boards are displayed in a room where participants and other company employees can observe the different designs and UCD processes. In order to evaluate the designs, participants and observers have a questionnaire that contains questions such as “Does the design take into account the context of use?” or “Did the team evaluate their first design solution?”
