Meeting Notes December 21, 2015
Owned by Dana Ayotte
Present: Colin, Dana, Michelle, Alan, Jess, Yan
Metrics Related to Personalization/Adaptation/Configuration
- Amount of sleep
- frequency of adjusting settings
- how often you change a preference you've already set
- are you revisiting preference choices later, after setting them?
- time interval between settings changes
- frequency of computer use relative to settings changes
- how often you add new preferences
- total number of preferences
- which preferences, which categories
- Goal-defined metrics:
- frequency of common errors
- typing mistakes (erasing?)
- misclicks
- use of delete key, back button, etc.
- rooted in preference adjustment
- Qualititive, self-reflective measures
- User reports on the "quality of experience: while accomplishing a particular task
- Self-identified, self-assessment of errors, etc.
- Metrics like the above, but articulated by users themselves rather than inferred/tracked automatically
- Allow the individual to declare the relevance of metrics to them
- Framework for encouraging ongoing, reflective self-assessment around self-defined and/or suggested questions. Could be:
- Freeform ("How am I doing today?")
- Scale-based ("On a scale of 1-10", "frequently / occasionally / seldom / never")
- "How do you interpret this metric?"
- self-defined, adjustable goals over time
- Gradual refinement of goals towards the goal you really want to achieve - discovery
- auto-tracked details (preference adjustments etc) + personal annotations
- combine with mutual usability "testing" - work together with user to annotate over time
- user continues to have access to/ownership over notes, data, etc. gathered as part of usability testing (by virtue of it all being connected to their personal dashboard)
Next Steps:
- generalised journal (not learner-centric)
- standard tracking with added layer of personal annotation/reflection
- include self-defined/adjustable goal tracking?
