The 5 habits of highly effective field researchers. Visiting your customers at their place of work — sometimes called ethnography, shadowing, contextual inquiry or simply a site visit — is the best way to understand the way people do their job. This understanding is central to doing great design as it helps you really understand the needs, motivations and goals of your users. But if you’re not careful, it’s easy to waste the opportunity and end up overwhelmed by what you’ve observed.

I’ve been fortunate to work with a number of user experience researchers, and I’ve noticed they all tend to be detail-oriented, highly motivated and conscientious. But when I think specifically about the field researchers I’ve worked with who have stood out from the crowd, there are a handful of particular behaviours I see in each of them: They create a focus question.They audio record the sessions.They take photographs of the environment.They take great notes. They write up a short summary of their observation immediately. Create a focus question Dr. Interview-Based Tasks: Learning from Leonardo DiCaprio. By Jared M. Spool Originally published: Mar 07, 2006 The silence was deafening.

Now, imagine what you would do if you were asked to perform that task. Passion on a subject changes how participants invest in usability test tasks. Pleasure & Pain ☯ by Whitney Hess | The User Experience Process for the Seamless iPad App. The Data One week after Seamless, the leading online food ordering service, released their first iPad app in March 2012, the app hit #1 in the App Store’s Lifestyle category.

Today it maintains 4.5 stars with more than 6,000 ratings and reviews. “By far the best menu application available for iPad…” “I couldn’t imagine not having it…” “Fantastic app that I use almost daily…” “Much better than fighting your way through a difficult conversation by calling a restaurant.” Less than a year later, Seamless has just announced that mobile devices account for more than 40% of order volume, and 30% of that is on iPad. 12% of all Seamless orders are being placed via the iPad app. That’s quite a big chunk of the ~$1 Billion worth of annual food orders Seamless processes. Since we can’t assume the average order value is the same on all devices, we can’t claim that $120 Million worth of orders have been transacted on the iPad. This is big.
