Details

The goal of this project is to find and interview people for two separate types of interview: user testing and user discovery.


User Testing: Gathering feedback on what people think of Noo Speak's UI/UX, features, usefulness, what they like/dislike, what they want to see changed, etc.


User Discovery: Finding language learners and collecting feedback on what people think of existing language learning apps, what they want in a language learning app, how they currently learn languages, what helps them, etc.


By the end of the project, we aim to have interviewed 10 people from each category.

Deliverables

The project activities include:

  • Determining ways of finding users to interview (ads, online communities, on-campus, email reachout, etc.)
  • Setting up interviews
  • Conducting interviews (alongside the project manager)
  • Recording the interviews
  • Writing up a short summary of findings for each interview
  • Identifying common themes in the findings
Mentorship
