P2: User Research

Planning, Development, and execution of needfinding through user research.

Process

With a problem space defined and potential user group identified, we proceeded to conduct user research. This was important because we needed to better understand our potential user group to come up with an efficient solution that meets their needs. We conducted interviews with 7 young adults with different backgrounds. They included Dartmouth students, recent graduates and a Dartmouth employee. We asked questions about their life outside of work/school and gained a lot of insight into how they currently do activities. Whether solo or in a group.
