### Purpose We've almost completed an MVP of what we wanted to build. We don't have a lot of subjects and topics and the model isn't perfect but we're getting reasonable results with around three topics across three subjects. The goal is to use the MVP and get some user feedback. There are two types of users that will use this product and we'd like to get insights from both. 1. Teachers - Teachers will use this tool to understand if learners are meeting their objectives. We want to understand from teachers what their typical learning objectives are and how they are currently checking for it. 2. Learners - Learners use this tool either in a self directed manner or as a task assigned by their teacher. They might use this tool to test themselves and see if they have understood a particular topic. ### Principles - Listen Don't Talk - It's important to ask a few questions to them before actually showing what we've built or talking about our rationale. - Detached - It's very important to not be too attached to what we've built so far and our own ideas and plans. The goal is to learn as much as possible from users. - Speed - It's sometimes easy to get caught up in product feedback and not iterate on what we've built. We should try to get this out of the way in our designated two week deadline. ### Outcome Visioning Demo a reasonably functioning MVP to learners. Understand how they're using the product and get a clear idea of what UI changes are needed. Speak to teachers and school administrators to understand better the problems they are facing and how we might better help them. In the best case scenario a few teachers give us clear problem statements that we can then solve and bring them back as early adopters. ### Brainstorming - What do I already know about this project? We have an idea what we're looking to understand. We also know a few teachers and learners to test this out with. - What don’t I know that I need to find out? It's good to build a stronger understanding on how to conduct user interviews. - Who can I talk to who might provide insights? Aditya Vishwanath might be a good person to talk to regarding how to approach learners and teachers. - What can I read or listen to for relevant ideas? YC has a lot of good resources on this. It's worth revisiting those videos. ### Actions - [x] Prepare a script for the user interview with learners and facilitators ✅ 2024-04-19 - [x] Identify five learners to test the application with ✅ 2024-05-08 - [x] Demo and test the application with the learners ✅ 2024-05-08 - [x] Identify teachers to get feedback from ✅ 2024-05-07 - [x] Demo and test the application with teachers ✅ 2024-05-07
