(Please read the post below this one too...that means you Corrine)
This might just be for clarification really, or just to check if we are all on the same page. this is just what I've gathered from the lectures and reading the news groups:
what we need to get out of these methods essentially seems to be along these lines.
Who are the users
this obviously includes, age, if student, even backgrounds if possible (how long they've been studing at that campus/course) etc. Also what are the users habbits.
what are their expectations?
spaces
how are these spaces used, how often, what for specifically, frequency and really, which spaces are actually beeing used. Also physical space and the environment - outside/inside issues like weather, noise, comfort, acces, safety etc
technology used
what technologies are beeing used. What techs are preffered (laptop vs pda) Could a new tech be used in this context. How are techs currently used more specifically.
I think that these would be great points to consider for the methods. especially since we're concentrating on methods that really need alot of data! Aslong as we back up our conclusions on this sort of thing we should be ok. Let me know what your opinons are. Also, Vic would you like us to help you with ahh 'aquiering' ;) data?
