Criterion D. Evaluating
Part I. Product Testing
A. Self-testing
1. Describe in a detailed paragraph how you tested your project before presenting the final version to your target
users/audience. Discuss how you checked and improved the technical/functional problems that you encountered.
(Minimum 70 words)
To test my product i borrowed Mister Damasos iPad to make sure that the QR codes led you to the correct sites and
that the Augmented Reality would work well. Since I used a different website that allowed you to create colorful QR
codes, a five second advertisement would appear and the first website i used didnt work. I changed it to a link for a
PDF about the learner profile, which worked for a few days but then ceased to open in the browser. The Aurasma image
worked very well except the video quality was not very good and it was pretty short. To solve this i had gotten a Sony
HANDYCAM from the library to film my video (Inquiring Example), but the video was corrupted and didnt copy onto the
computer well and i could not upload it to the ipad, so instead i just filmed everything on the iPad and it turned out
alright. I did have to delete the previous trigger image and that was a bit confusing, but otherwise, everything went really
well.
Evaluate your own project using the rubric below.
0: Not achieved
achieved

1-2 Minimally achieved 3-4: Moderately achieved

Aspects:

Self-Score

5-6: Mostly achieved

7-8: Fully

Reasons for Score Given

1. Does the project have a clear and

relevant purpose?

The purpose is to educate people on the learner profile and a specific trait,
Inquiring. I think that i communicated this very clearly with a bold title and extra
information on the subject in the form of a QR code.

2. Were digital tools (QR codes and

Aurasma)used effectively for the
project?

I used a QR code to attach a link to a website that would explain all the different
traits of the learner profile so that they could understand in more detail. The
Aurasma provided a visual aid (a short skit) on an example of inquiry.

3. Were digital tools used creatively (QR

codes and Aurasma) for the
project?

For my QR code i used a different website to make the code more colorful and
less dull and uniform. There was an image overlapping the code and the whole
thing looked much more colorful and inviting.

4. Is the project engaging and appealing?

I used lots of colors and I used drawings and handwriting as well as printed
material (pug pictures ^_^)

5. Does the project prototype actually

work?

Yes the prototype works and all of the QRs and Aurasmas are functioning
properly.

6. Does the project have a specific target

audience or users?

My audience is IB students that need to know more about the IB learner profile,
so i made it for all ages and made appealing to minors and teens.

7. Was there an appropriate testing done

for the project?

I didnt do an official test, but i did check to see if everything worked and it did so i
counted that as an Alpha test.

B. Evaluation by Target Users or Audience

1. Present and explain your project to 3 people from your target users or audience. Make them answer your evaluation
survey.
2. When you have gathered at least 5 feedbacks in your survey, post the link to the summary of results (the one with

graphs below.
https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1IO-KVRsCv5x5mkltvNFsg4Wss1HKNEah6i2hHmfIARk/viewanalytics

3. Compare the results of your evaluation survey to your self-evaluation. Complete the table below.
According to your self-evaluation

According to your survey results

a. How well did your final

product satisfy
your design
specification?

My final design looked very nice, there were some small

modifications from the initial design but everything went
very well and it looked inviting/well organised.

People said that it was very nice, it did could have had
a few more QR codes and it could have been a bit less
cramped, but otherwise it was satisfactory and well
made.

b. 3 Strong points of your

final product

It was very colourful and had lots of appealing pictures

that i thought fitted the theme moderately well and
provided a nice appealing aura.

Everything was laid out nicely and i had sufficient

information but i could have had another QR code for
the survey and to make it more diverse.

c. 3 Weak points of your

final product

I thought that the handwriting parts might have looked a

little bit unprofessional and that some of the images didnt
really match the theme of inquiry.

Everything was good but it needed a bit more

information and to space out the information. Also
some of the images were a bit irrelevant even though
they were there to provide a more entertaining and
welcoming feel.

d. 3 Suggestions for
Improvement

Make a border and not keep everything white and add a

little bit contrast and design instead of straight out images
and information.

Type up the written paragraphs in colour to make it

more professional and colorful, and include a QR code
for the survey.

Part II. Success of the Final Product

1. Did you strictly and thoroughly follow your original plan and design? If not, describe the changes that you made to the
final product, and give reasons why you made these changes.
Changes made to the original design and plan:

Reasons for these changes:

1.Deducted one aurasma

I did not need a second one because the first one provided sufficient
information to the topic.

2. Did not include the second QR code

I did not think i needed it for the survey and so i did not add it, but it turns
out i would need to.

3.Added a lot more images

To make it a bit more cheery as there were a lot of blank white spaces.

2. Generally, how well do you think your final project successfully achieved its original goal or purpose. Discuss 3
reasons.
I think that my poster was initially a very good one because it provided sufficient information on the topic and if you wanted to go into more detail,
there were QR codes and Aurasmas that added on more information if need be. Even though there were a few unnecessary factors to the poster, i
found that the colored images made the poster more lively and inviting. The overall effect of the Aurasma and the colored QR code made everything
much more neat and nice, as opposed to a dull black and white QR code. The Aurasma was simply an image that triggered and image, but i felt that
this was sufficient in the practice of its goal.

3. Discuss the impact of your final product.

Discuss at least 3 benefits that your target audience can
get from your project.

Discuss at least 3 limitations or disadvantages of using

your project?

It will teach them more on being an Inquirer and the learner profile in
general. It will do this in a entertaining and artistic way. They will also
learn a bit on how to use QR codes and Augmented Reality apps as
there is a short description on the poster directing them on how to apply

The poster had a few unnecessary factors like irrelevant images. It was
also a bit crowded and made it hard for people to focus on the actual
purpose of the product. Also the hand drawn stuff did not appear
professional and made the poster seem a bit off.

the skills. The poster will also intrigue people in further improving their
knowledge on QR codes
