Identifying and Addressing Common Workflow Gaps in Brain Data Analysis (Caroline)
Notes: Combine with some kind of cognitive load measurement, insight evaluation, to discover patterns that help explain evaluation results?
Comparison of user experience across different platform combos(Wenjun)
Notes: Compare work efficiency, user experience and other factors in different platform combos for users who need to transfer data between softwares
The factors we can consider to compare :
- The type of users: are they multi-tasking people ? Or do they like better to spend long time on one software and then turn to another ? What is the percentage of each group of people? How does this habit difference influence the design of software combo ?
- The use of time : What is the time expense in the switching tasks ? Which is the better , AAABBB OR ABABAB ? (A and B stands for different softwares, and each character stands for an hour's shift)
- For different features, what kind of softwares assist each other ? what kind of softwares conflict each other ? Can we apply some cognitive principles ?
- Given a task and a software in use , how to develop a strategy to select the best software match in a software pool for this given software?
- Could you design a graph or an experiment to measure how usable , how annoying and how ... among different combos .
- Hypothesis
- 1 We assume that consistency should be an important factor in platform combos. The universal identifier, function of shortcuts, transferred data forms, software operations should keep the same.
- 2 If impossible to keep the same , we should make them totally different. Because being similar is even worse. It will make a lot of confusions . We may design an experiment to testify that for the same function or future , " the exactly same design" is better than " totally different design " , which are both better than " similar design ".
