Our final presentation went down without a glitch, it certainly had been a rush to the end but our concept was strong.
We were lucky enough to have library officials attend, not only to be present on the judging panel but also to give feedback on our presentation.
Dylan and I were to be the speakers, I was to use the more emotive language and speak of how the app made the user’s experience stronger within the library and dylan was to talk more about it’s technical aspects and further developments. Tiia was steering the presentation, as mentioned it was her role throughout the past week to create this presentation.
The feedback given was also very inspirational – although they did comment on our wording. “Current system is archaic” may have been brought up. They mentioned that they are currently running research and developing a similar concept. They liked that we were on a similar wave length to their research as it provided further validation. Plus they gained some ideas, what I hope is that we get brought on board with helping the library to develop not only the interface but also the the information architecture and functions. I would love to be involved in the validation stage, the customer experience as that is what my internship is.
Here is our final pdf process work which Chantel developed:
Overall it was a great presentation and is certainly something I will be including in my portfolio. I just hope it continues further
