Results of user tests round 1
Lessons learnt:
• text needed to explain the Open Square on the home page
• Why sign in?
• Misleading phrases such as “Join the society”
• Links did not go to pages the user expected
• All the users had difficulties in focusing on our design concepts and not the technical aspects of the prototype

• Good community feel from the silhouettes

• The search option in the Open Square page needs to be more obvious
• Marketing requirements for more catching phrases and text
