Phase 3 · Evaluation Goals
The overall goal for this assessment is to determine if novice users can quickly learn how to use the iCoach system, specifically how quickly they are able to design a new play, and share that play with their team.
The evaluation will test the user's ability to prepare a new play, attach content that demonstrates the play to the players, and share that play with the relevant members of the team. As the main function of the app it is absolutly crucial that this process be clear, straightforward, and error free. This workflow for creating and sharing a play reperesnts the most crucial aspect for coaches to adopt and continue using the system.
The evaluation will also seek to determine if the benifits of the iCoach system outweigh the time cost to the end user in adopting the system. Since the begining of the project we have thought that one of the biggest obsticals we will face is the users willingness to adopt the application. By testing this factor we can gauge how well he have achieved our inital goal of designing a system that balances simplicity with power to create a product that coaches will actually use.
