Assessment window: observation Term 2 Week 5. Submission Term 2 Week 6.
Exact Assessment Items
- Two to three different design ideas.
- One evaluation criteria table.
- A recorded evaluation result for each design against the criteria.
Each Design Idea Must
- be a genuine alternative, not a tiny variation of the same idea
- respond to the same SRS
- show both functionality and appearance
- show that you considered requirements and constraints
- be documented using ideation tools such as mood boards, brainstorming, mind maps, sketches or annotated sketches
Your Evaluation Criteria Table Must
- be written as questions
- be set out clearly in a table
- allow each design to be judged against the same criteria
- record the outcome for each design idea
Your Evaluation Criteria Should Cover The Criteria That Are Relevant To Your Solution, Such As
- accessibility
- accuracy
- attractiveness
- clarity
- communication of message
- completeness
- maintainability
- readability
- relevance
- timeliness
- usability
- cost of data and file manipulation
- functionality
- speed of processing
- ease of use
- implementation time
- scalability
- future modification and enhancement
- how well the design satisfies requirements
- how well the design copes with constraints
- development cost and maintenance cost
- compatibility with existing hardware, software, data and procedures
- training requirements for users or staff
By The End Of This Block, You Should Be Able To Identify
- which design idea is your preferred design for detailed design work
Keep This Ready For Later
- keep the evaluation criteria editable because the same criteria will be used later to evaluate the final software solution
