Talking-Points@expoSItion

Posted March 18th, 2008 by escobarm

Talking-Points presented at the School of Information expoSItion on Monday, March 17th. The exposition occurred immediately after the SI Job Fair, so employers at the Fair came by to check out all the projects being displayed. We received a flood of positive response on our demonstration at the exposition from employers, students, faculty and the public.

The expoSItion allowed us to feature our concept of a community driven orientation system through our display board filled with information about our goals for the project, wireframes of the device’s navigation, and photos showing our progress. Additionally, a monitor was mounted in our display board, projecting further information about the project and playing videos from our WOz (Wizard of Oz) exercises. Furthermore, we were able to have a clickable dummy of the Talking-Points system available to individuals, giving them the ability to gain an interactive sample of the Talking-Points experience.

Overall, the expoSItion was a success for Talking-Points. It allowed us to further expose the project to the community.
