MIT 2023 - KPMG Hui #2


Another early morning start, I tried asking my partner for a ride into the city to save myself a couple bucks, but her unintelligible groans gave me a pretty clear indication that I should find my own way in. 


I arrive early, and myself and Matt tap away on our laptops until the rest of the crew arrived. I think we'd both had a rough week of Fantasy so thought it best to leave that subject alone, and we trot over to the KPMG offices. A massive thank you, as always to Justine for hosting us so wonderfully, but for her helpful input, and advice. We begin our day reflecting on our project so far in the WWW session. This is such a great crew, and looking at their work, I am blown away at their creativity, and the innovative ideas they've come up with. I can't wait to see where we all end up. Sharing ideas in a setting like this has now become such an awesome experience, I feel privileged to be able to share ideas, and have them help me to craft and hone my own.


We presented our prototype testing - I was nervous for my testing, there were a lot of moving parts in my prototype design, from audio clips on Youtube, to response validations, with multiple questions, and large chunks of my own narrative writing (don't get me started on how nervous that part makes me) for my students to give me feedback on.  The testing started with a flop. My Youtube videos had not been properly categorized, and were unable to be viewed on our student's devices. Once that was sorted the testing was great fun to see, the kids were super encouraging, but I think that's more a reflection of how awesome they are, instead of how awesome the prototype was. 


Each quiz ended with an opportunity for the kids to give me feedback, and I used that to help guide me in the process. For example; 49% of the students used the clarifications guide in the prototype, and a further 28% didn't need to use it. Other's found it confusing, and not useful. In further testing I will investigate how to make the clarification guide more useable.


Here are the results from the student feedback;




And here are my reflections on that round of testing
