Assignment : Reflection 

 Challenge     I am a senior undergraduate student in Human - Computer Interaction class . It is a study 

 to understand the way people behave and feel towards computer or machine . Then , I ’ve got   a term project to make use of data that were given by the professor . The data are transactions   of user ’s using websites and their basic profile such as their duration , number of pages viewed ,   income , region , household size , etc . From my point of view , it is difficult to consider what can   be done with the 21 columns and up to 300,000 rows of data . There is literally massive of   amount of combination of columns to make . At the end , I need to figure out “ what to tell ? ”   because I need to give a presentation of this data .     Selection     The tools that seems to be appropriate at this moment is storytelling . It is a tool to 

 help connect a speaker and an audience together . An information that a speaker was trying   to share with the audience is depend on the audience itself . To know the audience is a key   to communicate better . That was a first rule of storytelling . I think if we know who the   audience are , I will be able to try to empathize them and know what they need to know from   this data . Then I will be able to communicate with my audience smoothly . 

 Since , I am studying in Human - Computer Interaction class , I think storytelling can 

 contribute to the rules of designing and improving user ’s interface well because they both   involve thoughts about the users ( audiences ) .     Application     I will explain how I used the storytelling tools to improve my term project . I used two 

 rules from it . Firstly , I use the first rule of storytelling which is “ know your audience ” or in this   case understand the users . I then think who the possible users are . I came up with 3 groups :   companies ’ owner , their customer , their potential investors . All of it might need different kinds   of information since they may have different questions . So , I decide to do a little research of   what they need to know and their objectives . 

 After the I did , I built interactable visualizations on a website with personalization 

 features and recommendations that depends on the users ’ type . At this point , I did not forget   to sequence the visualization . For example , for companies ’ owner , after I analyze data , I found   a solution to a question they asked , “ What can we do to increase a number user ? ” . I knew 

 that at this company , the number of their transaction in a product they have is not significantly   different from their competitors . The number that is quietly different is from other products   they do n’t have . So , my suggestion is to expand the products line . I plan to start by asking   them the same question and then continue with a graph showing their sales transactions of   their single product as I explain it . After that , I added their competitor ’s sales transaction in   this product . Finally , I added the amount of product of other ’s transaction from other   companies to make them see the different and told my suggestion as an answer to the   question I asked in the beginning . If I show this simultaneously , it would be harder to explain . 

 Insight     After using the storytelling process , it leads to a new perspective of how I see the 

 problems . It is quietly useful to use with the design concept I ’ve been learning : to know your   users/ to understand users . The visualizations I built are not one - size fit all problems . Thus ,   things that I learnt from this is there are many users in the real world and their needs might   be different . In web - design , although they teach universal design , I believe if a personalization   page can be created , it will generate better communication .     Approach     This tool is really fit for web designer / developers . It can help to think about users 

 more . Then the web - designer can create a perfect personalized website or visualization for   their users depend on what they need . It is also useful to use in a presentation to help   communicating the complex idea such as strategy ( stated in the video ) because it helps to   sequence what to tell . I will totally use this as I am determined to be a we d designer in my   future .
