Prototyping - the art of getting feedback

Presentation was part of Homathon, a #StayAtHome online hackathon set up to face the challenges Individuals, Communities, Businesses, and Governments are facing as a result of the COVID-19 outbreak.

4. What is it
5. Prototyping is the act of putting ideas in the hands of stakeholders in order to get feedback on them. Most probably the feedback should be interactive, external and not driven by our own assumptions.
6. – Tim Brown, CEO and president of IDEO They slow us down to speed us up. By taking the time to prototype our ideas, we avoid costly mistakes such as becoming too complex too early and sticking with a weak idea for too long.
7. Why it is important
8. If we are on the path to design an experience for a target group of users, we will need to interact with a smaller group of them. And we need to get insights from them on the most optimal experience for them.
9. Where failure is inevitable, prototyping allows us to fail faster. When combined with an effective feedback and collaboration workflow, it provides the additional eyes that help identify flaws and turn them into improvement opportunities.
10. Without prototyping, we spend a lot of time, money, and resources to build a product that users won’t or can’t use. Assuming we didn’t burn through our budget, we’d be back to the drawing board.
11. Prototyping is a preventative workflow that reminds us that ideas are disposable. It saves us a ton of time in long run, and helps us fix issues before they become too expensive. We shouldn’t think of prototyping as a waste of time, but rather a method of identifying and discarding the ideas that simply aren’t going to work.
12. Different methods of prototyping
13. Sketching and paper prototyping
14. Sketching and paper prototyping Easily discardable, fast and most important no to grow attached
15. Digital Prototyping
16. Digital Prototyping Examples are principleformac, Framer and Invision
17. Native Prototyping
18. Native Prototyping Explore with close to end product tools, needs more developers or finishing staff to be involved
19. Always pick the right fidelity We need to choose the right fidelity based on the stage we are in. It all depends on our degree of confidence level of the solution.
20. What makes a good prototype? • It should be discardable, no emotional attachment • It should be as simple as possible • It should have a clear goal of new information to extract from it • It should be experienced by your customers or stakeholders
21. What makes a good prototype? It is not your pet!
22. What makes a good prototype? As simple as possible
23. What makes a good prototype? Clear goals to seek feedback on
24. What makes a good prototype? It should be experienced by the stakeholder
25. What is the biggest difference between a prototype and an MVP
26. A prototype can focus on one aspect of the product and be incomplete
27. The MVP needs to deliver value to the customer
28. Prototyping a hospital is possible, an MVP is not
29. What tools are available for digital prototyping
