Question

Assume that you have been asked to create a mobile user interface that allows students to search for courses. The user should be able to enter search criteria, view a list of results (the course IDs,Title, Term and Year), then select an item of the list to display more information (Instructor, Room, Summary, Prerequisites). 1. Who are the relevant stakeholders? Who could be primary and secondary users? 2. What is the context of use? 3. Design an interface that can perform the above tasks using powerpoint or other computer-based prototyping tools (e.g. proto.io). Explain how the user will navigate through the interface in a few sentences.

1.

1. The pool of relevant stakeholders may include business program sponsors, business application owners, business process managers, senior management, information consumers, system owners, as well as frontline staff members who are the beneficiaries of shared or reused data.
2. The primary stakeholders in a typical corporation are its investors, employees, customers, and suppliers. However, with the increasing attention on corporate social responsibility, the concept has been extended to include communities, governments, and trade associations.
3. Secondary stakeholders are those who may affect relationships with primary stakeholders. For example, an environmental pressure group may influence customers by suggesting that your products fail to meet eco- standards.

2.The Context of Use is the actual conditions under which a given artifact/software product is used, or will be used in a normal day to day working situation.
