Work

  • Reflection: Really struggling with the LSEPI and EDI concerns section, review notes and review recent tutorial, only need to write a paragraph on each section to demonstrate that I understand the content and importance of the concerns. I struggled all day to write anything meaningful, took a break for the day and will resume researching the areas and then must apply to my project.

Session 2: Sunday 09th March 2025

Session Time: start: 09:30 

Work

  • Update 'Project Description' in relation to the points contained in the "what to submit for TMA01" section of TMA01.
  • Identify project goals to include in TMA01.
    • To extend my knowledge and application of TM356 through a systematic understanding of the concepts and principles of interaction design:
      • establishing requirements
      • designing alternatives, 
    • prototyping designs
      • evaluating prototypes
  • Use the following structure for the review of literature:
    • the problem, issue or technology that was being addressed
    • the solution or outcome that was proposed
    • how it was evaluated, if at all, and what the outcome was
    • the scope of the work presented in the source, and especially an assessment of whether it stops short of the work you are doing or whether it encompasses it in some way
    • any similarities and differences between the work you have read about and the work you intend to do
    • the ways in which it relates to the work you are doing and any specific contribution it can make to a solution.
  • Research ISO Standards

Reflection

  • I need to improve the paraphrasing when writing up the literature review. Seek guidance from OU Library and enrol on a course.
  • I struggled to find the location of the ISO standards in the library. I contacted the library who guided me library resources >statistics sources>patents & standards>British standards online
