25. More of what you might expect….. Earlier focus group (Edinburgh College of Art, December 2009) helped inform initial development (lead by in-house designer) Approach - based on user-centered design principles considering the tasks, goals and experience of the user. One clear finding – simple Google-like search Inconclusive on other preferences, although Search by Subject used by some. Search by Place not rated as so useful. Timeline, no consensus - A useful feature for you? Preferred designs? http://edina.ac.uk/dev/jackieclark/multimedia/views-testing.html http://www.jisc-content.ac.uk/inspire-me
