    This document outlines the major tasks for a group project to design a system that enhances human abilities through human-computer interaction. The tasks include: 1) forming teams and choosing a topic, 2) understanding user needs through research, 3) creating a hierarchical task analysis, 4) designing wireframes, 5) building a prototype, 6) evaluating the prototype with users, 7) writing a project report, and 8) presenting the project. The goal is for students to design, develop, evaluate and refine an effective interface to support compelling interaction.

    Project Description

    You are required to develop a group project consisting of:

     Conceptualizing
     Designing
     Implementing
     Testing
     Refining a system
    That will evolve from a paper description, to a simple prototype, and finally to a functional system.

    The project theme is "enhancing us as humans"; more specifically, we want you to look for
    ways in which human-computer interaction can help overcome human limitations, whether for a
    certain subset of users, or for pretty much everybody.

    Before you get started on the first project deliverable, you must first "pitch" your idea by
    writing up a brief description of the problem. The pitch must also include a description of your
    intended user population and an explanation of why you think that you could develop a prototype
    solution with a relatively modest amount of implementation effort.

    Your choice!
    Note that whatever you choose to develop may already exist in some other form, in which case,
    one of your initial tasks in the first project deliverable will be to evaluate the existing system and
    identify its limitations that made you modify the system. Alternatively, your project idea may be
    inspired by a concept description, but not available in a functional implementation, or it may be
    something completely of your own invention.

    What we expect!
    In any event, what we will be focusing on in our evaluation of your work is not the application
    itself, but rather, your ability to design, develop, evaluate, and refine an effective interface that
    supports a compelling level of interaction.
    Major Tasks
    Following is the list of deliverables you have to submit on weekly basis

    – 0 - Team formation & topic choice


    – 1 - Understand the problem space
    – 2 - HTA
    – 3 - Exploring the design space
    – 4 - Prototype
    – 5 - Evaluation
    – 6 - Project Report
    – 7 - Project Presentation

    1- Team formation & topic choice


    a. Identify team
    b. Choose a Topic
    c. Identify the Scope of Project
    d. Submit a proposal
    Suggestion: Pick a population and pick a technology; check out their connection

    2- Understand the problem space


    a. Describe tasks, users, environment, social context

    i. This deliverable is intended to familiarize you with the user community


    for whom your group will be designing and developing a prototype
    technology. It will require, as a first step, observation of real users
    engaging in everyday activities.

    b. What are the suggestions for design?


    a.What are the new features you want to add to your system
    b. Why do you think it to be necessary to modify the existing system?
    (justify this incase if you want to add new features/modify the existing
    system)
    c.You are required to describe the complete specification of the system i.e.
    the features and functionality of the system you are going to design.
    d. You are required to identify and specify the type of changes you
    would like to make to the existing system. (Justify this incase if you want
    to add new features/modify the existing system)
    e.What technology you want to use for developing the system.
    f. Submit a report at the end of this task consisting of above mentioned
    requirements.

    3- Task Analysis (HTA)


    a. You are required to design a HTA for your project i.e. for identifying the
    tasks and subtasks a user can perform.
    b. Submit the HTA of project at the end of this task

    4- Exploring the design space


    a. You are required to design wireframes for your project i.e. for each and
    every interface.
    b. Submit the wireframes of your project at the end of this task.

    Suggestion: Use Pencil or Balsamiq Tool for designing wireframes.

    5- Prototype
    Prototype is a working model of software with some limited functionality.
    a. You have to design a prototype of your system, for which you have to
    design interfaces which should be interconnected.
    b. Submit the prototype of your system at the end of this task.

    6- Evaluation
    a. Beta Testing
    i. Conduct formal evaluation with expected users of the system
    ii. Use appropriate methods( i.e. use likert chart for this purpose)
    iii. Analyze results of evaluation
    iv. Characterize what’s working and what’s not
    b. Submit the views of the users
    7- Project Report
    a.You are required to write a report on your project. The contents of which
    are mentioned below
     Introduction
     Scope
     Hardware and Software Requirements
     Tools and Technologies Used
     Advantages of Proposed System
     Disadvantages of Proposed System
     Functional Requirements of Proposed System
     Task Analysis
     Wireframes
     Evaluation report
     Lessons Learnt
     Conclusion
     References

    8- Project Presentation
    The in-class presentations will provide you an opportunity to showcase the results of your
    work.
    a. The presentation should begin with a brief (maximum five minutes) overview,
    explaining the rationale behind the system you chose to implement.
    b. Extract the Presentation from Project Report.
    c. Maximum number of Slides (15-20).
