App: Digital Prototype II
Based on my learnings from talking with Elise Lemle and Eric Forman and testing the first app prototype with Luna and the app SuperNote—offers note taking in form of text, photos and audio—with a group of 7 year olds, this second prototype of the app is very simple and linear in its interactions. There are two basic activities: 1. take photo and 2. record title, names of creators, and story.
It’s a step by step process with instructions before each step and appraisal after each step. I envision these instructions to be in handwriting and have a casual tone. Here is a link to a clickable prototype created in Invision: http://invis.io/SM2GT6YR4
The purpose of the app is for a group of students or an individual student to document their story through images and audio. At the end of the documentation, the story (image + audio) is saved onto the device and uploaded to the class gallery. An email alert is simultaneously send to the teacher to approve the story before it is visible in the gallery.
All interactions beyond the photo taking and audio recording—the individual story box format, uploading and email for example—happen automatically in the background. The students are only responsible for the “data input”.
Students can do two things in the app: 1. document a story and 2. view their class gallery.
