Waypoints: Methods Plan
Users often assign different priorities to tasks depending on their desired interaction with the system. Using feedback from our interviews, we developed a list of common tasks for our three personas. The table below organizes the tasks into general categories (e.g. data admin, search). Listed below each persona, the priority of that task is recorded on a scale of low, medium, or high.
