Background

The chair of “Business Informatics, especially IT for the Ageing Society” has designed a participatory platform called “Research Buddy”. Research Buddy offers students and the interested community a platform for joint research at various levels.

The current development status was revised together with the relevant stakeholder groups and a relaunch was conceived as wireframes.

Task

The aim of this project work is to formulate user stories for the development process from the existing wireframes and to qualitatively test these for comprehensibility (usability) with the potential users (developers).

Requirement

  • Experience with the formulation of user stories
  • Interest in participatory approaches (observations, interviews, cooperative evaluation)
  • Independent work, commitment and enjoy working in a team
  • Communicative and willing to work with users
  • Previous experience in qualitative field research and empiricism desirable

Target group

Students of the HCI, business informatics or related courses.

Scope

The scope is based on the course and format (thematic project or final theses).

Beginning

According to the arrangement
