Applied Research Project A Website for Student Jobs
(According to UCD) Idea to create a paper prototype by using different Usability Methods and Techniques. Project--Duration 4 Months.

Develop Project Plan
Gantt Chart in Excel used as Project Management tools It helps to find the current situation of Project and shows the Activities or Methods with respect to the times
Kick off Meetings &Team Responisbilities
Team meeting making Questionaries, Discuss SystemProcess, create Work plan, How the System is being developed? What information is going to be covered? What will be the duration of each Methods & How to split the task? What amount of research do you intend to pursue? Which Usability Methods Will be considerd? What will be the User Goal? How to start the Project?
Find User Requirements
Target User has been selected from the beginning of the research. The second step is to understand the users needs and requirements. UCD Design process is quite similar to the waterfall model process. This is the reason that project members want to Establish the requirements level very high in the early stage .
Learn about the users and their tasks
learn about the workflow
Know users Difficulties & pain
User Interview
Setup Qst,Place,Users
Findout large amount of data from Interview (users need)
Focus Group Persona
Qualitative Feedback
behavior in a social context
Describe backgrounds, goals, and values, Needs, Expectation from users
Create empathy
Explore & Design
To clear the journey of the users in the system, A paper storyboard has been created before paper prototype.
Analysis
After gathering large amount of data from users needs, Team members want to discuss appropriate data for making primary sketch/Mock-ups in paper. In order to that we followed:-
Brainstorming Card Sorting Task Analysis Scenario
developing the ideas into a concept
Find out the possible Navigations for system
Focus on users behavior
Users Efficiency, Effectivity, satisfaction
Use case, Flow Diagram
Paper Prototype Before test with User Heuristic Evaluation
Implementation & Test
Style Guides Implement the desgin before testing with user. Specify the users goal
Usability Test User Observation, Documentation, Evaluation against Requirements Get User Feedback End

Kick Off Meetings Make Time schedule for Activities, Discuss About Process, Specify Target users.
Apply usability methods to find Users requirements Field Study , Interview,
User Stories, Persona, Journey map, Card sorting, Sketch .
Interactive Prototypec
User Stories, Persona, Journey map, Card sorting
Qualitative Usability test
Analytics Review
Field Study To find Users Basic Information, needs, requirements, Difficulties, Expectations
Interview Get Ideas from Field Study. Prepare questions for Interview. Get Appointment with Framers and make the interview schedule. [ 15 Interviews has been taken in 2 Months]
Understand User Requirements
Analysis Requirements
Write User Stories Creating persona Journey Map Card Sorting
Focus Users goal Problems
Different Users Persona describe users Activity, stisfactions, Pain
How to achieve the goals
Idea to make design of Navigation or features
Sketch basic Wireframe of the system
UX research found Problems
• Farm Monitoring • Weather • Temperature • Supply of water and seeds chemicals • Check list
UX research found Possible Solutions
• Uses of Drone from Microsoft surface along with other features. • Using Algorithoms for auto weather forcast before extrime rain
or bad wind. Chemicals for seeds also can be provide with drone and it can be controll from the same operator positions.
• Algorithom uses for making checklist for farmers, which shows what to do, how and when?
Apllied the Features or Navigation on Microsoft Surface

Evaluate the Design after Users Interaction and test.
Users Feedback
Implement the further requirements . [Voice Commands during Interaction]
Finally Reach Users Satisfaction with the system, Efficiency and sustainability. The END
