IMG 2656 - Copy.JPG


1. Objective
  • Propose new and fresh ideas by exploring more layout design and functionalities to be implemented
  • Get the preferable layout chosen by client



2. Description

Paper prototype of improvements to the system is used to clarify requirements and enable draft interaction designs and screen designs to be very rapidly simulated and tested. Users are given the prototype to test the functionalities and usability of the whole system without any guidance. Reactions and doubts are recorded through video to note down the areas of improvements to be made in regards to usability and ease of use. Potential usability problems can be detected at a very early stage in the design process before any code has been written and User will get the feel of the comprehensive system and revise the requirements at an early stage.
Testers :

  • Michiel Roosjen
  • Rachel Tann


3. Methods
  • Users are given a list of functionalities supported as discussed.
  • Presented with the paper prototype, users will attempt to test the functionality/complete the tasks without any guidance.
  • Tester will either voice out the interface the user should expect to see or add in prepared prototypes on other screenshots.
  • Mark on the prototype where a user attempted to “click” or otherwise interact with the interface
