Occasional Poem | |
BY JACQUELINE WOODSON | |
Ms. Marcus says that an occasional poem is a poem | |
written about something | |
important | |
or special | |
that's gonna happen | |
or already did. |
User feedback for cosmic-moments:
User One: Thinks the app is cool and interesting and he was able to use the app as I intended (to look up, by date, an astronomy picture from the NASA archives, and learn more about it by searching for any terms). The user understood how to use the app and found it easy to use. However, user noted that it would be better if the date could be looked up by either a drop-down calendar or by being able to type in the date in any number of ways (e.g. 7/18/2000, not just Jul 18 2000 or July 18, 2000)
User Two: Thinks it is a cool way to look at information simultaneously and be able to search within the page for something while you're already looking at another thing. It does behave the way she wants it to— Can see two things at the same time. Reallly likes the way you can scroll within that page without moving the screen (the iframes). She wishes the wikipedia page would fill up the empty strip of white on one side (she is viewing it on a desktop with a very large screen— noted:

+s: | |
-thought it was interesting | |
-the purpose for the app was easily understood and straightforward to use | |
-overall look | |
suggestions for improvement: | |
-landing page quote doesn't need to be visible once user is logged in; | |
-in 'saved' section of the app => it is confusing to see entries without books saved to them | |
-redirect automatically after filling out signup form to login form; | |
-address the fact that user saying he feels 'good' does not return any results (yikes); |
