  1. Heuristic assignment analysis Does the submission follow assignment formatting? (Or do you have a good reason not to?)

  2. Heuristic assignment analysis Does the submission look at forest or trees? • Risk of high-level overgeneralizing • Risk of nitpicking

  3. Heuristic assignment analysis Does the submission highlight important detail? • “Heuristic analysis is a method for evaluating websites.” • “Heuristic analysis is a quick, inexpensive technique to identify the key issues on a site to guide priorities for future development.”

  4. Heuristic assignment analysis Does the submission say only what it needs to say? • “Like I said before, . . . ” • “In this day and age, . . . ” • “When it comes to . . . “ Attention span is scarce. Don’t waste it.

  5. Some Quick Wins • Follow the assignment format • NEVER quote without attribution big deductions!! • Don’t quote too much even with attribution I'm not grading the Wikipedia page, I'm grading your work. Copy & paste doesn’t earn a high score. • Discuss participants, don’t just list themWhy these & not others? NOT a laundry list of all project stakeholders.

  6. Your IA Guide A reference you will use in part 2 A reference you can use forever

  7. What’s the point • A structured way to prepare for class • A place to work through the sample project • A place to show what you know and can learn • A really good way to “dogfood” IA practices

  8. What’s the structure? • Learn by filling in the basics • Practice by doing the analysis • Refine by doing the reflection • Basics section before class • Begin analysis section in class finish for next class • Reflection after the 3rd class For each deliverable there is at least a basics exercise, for most all three exercises

  9. What’s the process • Copy the exercise off of the site, paste into • HTML editor (preferred) • Word • Submit to catalyst drop box • URL • Compressed and packaged page (mht file) • Word file • All exercises are graded

  10. FeedBack 1

  11. The basic eval rubric • 1-5 scale • Responsive to the assignment • Complete and well reasoned • Well written • Well presented • Format • Navigation • Labeling 0= missing 1= little effort 2=basically there 3=good 4=some things shine 5=everything shines

  12. Feedback on your first work • See the big picture of this assignment and behave accordingly • Respond to each part of the assignment • Pay attention to file naming or add to the same file as you go along • Summarize don’t just paste • Wikipedia is not evil, but it's not enough, either.

  13. Citations • Can use my table format (Title and link) • Can use a standard format • APA • MLA • Must cite whenever there is a direct quote • Must set the quote off from the surrounding text • Indent • Quote marks • Both

  14. Feedback 2

  15. Turn in one file or many? Your call, but in the end, it will need to be one.
