Before conducting the interviews, we explained the suppose of the website and the setting it will be used in. After giving them context, we gave them fake data and files to input. They seemed to have understood and navigated the website well but we did notice they had to move around the mouse to navigate the to different elements of the website.
For need-finding techniques, we choose to conduct interviews with 3 CS majors who have experience in full stack and front-end. We received insightful feedback to improve our website, unfortunately, due to time constraints we were not able to implement them. The question we asked that provided the most technical feedback was adding a footer, centering the webpage, moving the logout button closer to the other items of the screen, using MongoDB to store data input, adding a menu bar at the top that stays consistent with the other webpages, and using React for future implementation of this project. These are all very important feedback that would improve the web application in the future.
The second group we interviewed were 3 students who work at the medical center, they provided feedback they gave related to making it more concise. Their reasoning behind this is that doctors have to deal with a lot of patients and if this is web app is intended to make it easier to view data, it shouldn't be spread out all over the page. One student had said to strategically move the rating of the finger tapping to the top, possibly underneath the information of the patient (name, date of birth, age, and sex).
After we concluded individual interviews, we explained some of the flaws and obstacles we ran into. The first group, the CS students, provided feedback regarding the technical errors while the second group gave feedback on how to make the website more esthetically appealing.
