- begin to imagine how the actual design of the system will meet persona needs
- free their imagination and think of "out-of-the-box" design concepts
- raise questions about our understanding of persona goals, activities and workflows
- raise questions about the design and technical elements of the system (i.e. security, privacy, systems interoperability, help, etc.)

Example
Our example context scenario is based on preliminary work done for the Library & Sakai 3 Integration Project. It describes a situation in which Allison McCallum, an instructor persona, builds a syllabus for a new course. This scenario has been abbreviated for the purposes of this example - your scenarios are likely to be longer than seven steps.
...
- an optimistic, imagined future system that serves Allison's goals, needs and behaviors in the context of a realistic activity that she regularly performs
- the future system need not be described in detail or realistic - at this stage, the focus is on meeting user needs, following good design principles and raising questions about how user needs can be met (not necessarily answering these questions)
- a story with a beginning, end and an idea of how long the scene lasted
