What did people actually say about your prototype?

How to use it + an example

How to use it

  1. Show the prototype to a user or peer.
  2. Record their feedback in the four quadrants as they talk.
  3. Turn the most important wishes and questions into specific improvements.

Example

Testing a bag prototype, a user likes the zip pocket but wishes the strap were wider, which becomes the one change for version two.

When to use it: When testing a prototype with users or peers and evaluating the design (MYP Design Criterion D).

Test: Try it. Find what breaks. Fix it.

Collect feedback in four quadrants: what works, what could be better, what’s unclear, and new ideas. Then decide what to do first.

Specific feedback beats “it’s nice”. Name the thing, then fill the grid.

Look back. Which piece of feedback will you act on first?
