Before we start defining our process, please share your thoughts the following questions:
1. How do we define "end-user documentation" - purpose, audience, and content? And media?
- Purpose
- to document the OOTB experience
- to document configuration options that change the OOTB experience
- to demonstrate how to accomplish common tasks
- Audience
- Faculty should be a primary audience
- Instructional designers
- Could we consider faculty as end-users and students as end-end-users?
- Faculty design choices influence student user experience
- Content
- Beginner and Advanced levels would allow a faculty member to get a quick start with the basics and then later explore the more complex features
- Conceptual Introduction - brief description of the purpose of the tool
- Task oriented instructions
- Brief (3 min?) screencast
- Annotated screenshots
...
10. How should we address the branding and localization issues (different names, logos, style sheets, languages)?
- What is the difference between localization and branding?
11. "Wish list" thoughts?
