Recommendations:
I recommend typing the review in another document and then pasting it into discord by paragraph so that we don't have to download the file to read and so that we can react to your feedback.
Use this criteria to review
Required for all reviewers:
Watch the Videos - of your genre rows assigned to you, Go back the to shortened slides if needed.
Write: Use a document to write in instead of directly in discord - add each paragraph to discord after you have reviewed and edited your full peer review. (Reviewers Write in this way: This reviewer sees, recognizes or understands that this data has this effect or contrast or impact. (Remove your biases, remove your person)
State: Start by stating the title of the Project, then Repeat the overview so that the team knows that you are familiar with what they submitted.
Now choose 3 or more of the following topics to discuss:
Do you, as a reviewer, have a good understanding of the insights from qualitative data as it relates to the project? Are there stories that were told to help you emotionally connect with a new need?
Do you, as a reviewer, have a good understanding of the insights from quantitative data as it relates to the project? Did the data provide an "aha moment?" (ie: As a reviewer I realized that many more people are affected by this issue and that the need is greater than I recognized.")
Did the team recommend potential changes for the product based on the Usability Testing or Play Testing that will meet the needs of the proposed audience?
Imagine: you are the original company: Do the recommendations provided by the team help your revised product to be more inclusive in a way that could drive new traffic or buyers or audience?
Any other feedback or recommendations that is appropriate to provide.
Teams/individuals: After you have received your peer reviews they can be extremely helpful and it is good practice to respond, you may respond directly in discord.
Deadline for the final peer review of the videos is December ( ____)
(Final Peer Reviews will be written on and can be found on the team Discord channel that was reviewed)
Look for your assignments on this page for who you are to review individually for your final exam.
