Feb 3, 2016 - Notes from group discussion

The self-assessment dashboard use cases were discussed to identify the main characteristics and features of the dashboard.

• people need assistance and motivation to self assess and document their progress

• how do we enable users to do the initial skill assessment when setting a goal
  
  

  • They should be able to compare it to something they have done before

  • looking at what other people have done

• option to set flexible goals, and making them visible or invisible

• option to create flexible/custom messages and prompts

• trial and error over time

• approaching the dashboard as a modular system, so its different pieces could be plugged into different applications

• defining a badging or reward system

• autonomy - dashboard should not take decisions on behalf of the user

• ability to see the parallels, overlaps, patterns, correlation between different activities, contexts and outcomes

• ability to set different viewing options e.g. public, private, isolated, blocked, hidden, etc.

• including the UIO preference setting for all scenarios

• ability to give others access to the dashboard
