Note: CT has not seen the tritonlink class planner beta.

 

J (Jonathan): I’m going to tell you to do things and I’ll observe how you do it.

 

CT not really sure about subscriptions but he chooses to click them.

 

CT clicks the event for class “Cogs 102c” and successfully finds the class website.

 

J: How about finding where the classes are?

 

CT clicks “CSB003” and successfully finds the location of the class on the map.

 

J: Try to find out if the pub is playing any events

 

CT clicks on other calendars, then browse, (excepts to see social events and different calendars – something like the Peg- in the browse menu). CT then clicked on “social”, in which a drop down menu appeared. CT then clicked on concerts at the pub. CT is “all right” with the browse screen disappearing after clicking concerts at the pub.

 

J: You want to keep the “rave” [event] on the calendar but get rid of “band”. How would you go about doing this?

 

CT clicked on band and clicked delete.

 

To save the concert to his personal calendar, CT clicked on concerts, right click on event, click save to my calendar, click concerts

 

To get rid of concerts CT did a right click on concerts and expected to see “remove, share, find related” on menu.

 

J: Say your friend told you about an event at the career services center so you wanted to find out when that is.

 

CT clicks on “other calendars” and then “browse”. Click career. Click career services workshop. CT wants the career services workshop screen to disappear after clicking on it.

 

J: You just got an e-mail [Jonathan shows CT the

 

CT: Is this spam? [NO] Click add to calendar.

 

J: Add an event to the calendar

 

CT clicks on the calendar space that corresponds to when he wants the event to happen and adds “foosball date: cuzco 215” on the pop-up screen that allows you to open up the pop-up screen.

 

CT would prefer to browse a list of locations as opposed to a map because he knows the name of the locations whereas he might not necessarily notice a building on a map. He says this is faster and more efficient.

 

CT clicked rimac, and clicked save.

 

J: Say you wanted a reminder for this event. How would you want to be reminded?

 

CT chose e-mail. He did a right click and then clicked on “create a reminder”. CT said “click e-mail”. He suggests that SMS should say “SMS (text message)” because some people don’t know what SMS is. CT clicked on the drop down menu and clicked on “one day before”. CT clicks on “reminder”, then clicked on “SMS” because he wanted to have two reminders.

 

J: Do you want something to carry around with you the entire quarter? Do you carry around your class schedule?

 

CT: Only the first few weeks.

 

To print out weekly schedule of classes CT would un-check the default box, and would expect to only see classes show up on the calendar as opposed to all events. He did a right click, and expected to see “print academic calendar and print academic map” Right click on “print academic calendar”.

 

 

J: Say you have this long term goal of going to Disneyland and you made a note of that previously. “Say you just decided, I needed to go to Disneyland, it’s not connected to a specific date….”

 

CT: If I want to make a “to-do” he expects to see a tab above the calendar that says “ongoing to-do”. He would click on “ongoing to-do”. On the “ongoing to-do”screen he sees a new entry for a “new to-do”, “existing” (fills out let Yao win at foosball). There should also be an option that lets you decide to decide whether or not to have a due date.  CT clicks on “new to-do”. He enters “go to Disneyland” and clicks save (he originally wanted to click on a button that said ‘no date’). CT does a right click on the to-do list item “let Yao win” (wants to do each to-do one at a time). CT Clicks on “show due date on calendar”. He clicks the “to-do” box on the main right bar to show his “to-dos”. Click close.

 

J: Remove this to-do

 

CT right clicks “let Y win”. Check off

 

J: Say you want today’s calendar on your cell phone.

 

CT: adding events seems hard because of format issues. CT text’ed “day” and got his schedule.

 

CT mentions that this (calendar reminders on cell phones) is a good feature but there’s an issue with text messaging costs.

 

J: You haven’t used the class planner before but say you’re signing up for classes. You want to sign up for an anthropology class and you want to see how it fits in with your schedule.

 

User clicks “Class Planner” tab. User clicks “anthropology” User clicks the class “Anthropology 1”. User clicks “Click add to calendar”. The class is added to the computer. Screen should go away when he adds it.

 

Overall, CT likes the reminders/to-do’s. Moreover, he thinks it isn’t feasible to add events on your cell phone

 

*Add a top-level “show/print classes only” feature. When one selects that then they will see those select classes on the calendar.
