Exercise 1 - Individual Report

For this exercise, we need to identify the Affordances, Signifiers, Mapping, Feedback for a mobile app. I chosen Celcom Life because I use it top up data every month.

Exercise 2 - Individual Report

For this exercise, we need to identify the good and bad UX Design. We must interact with the merchant.

I chose Watsons because there's a store nearby.

FEEDBACK

Week 3

Specific Feedback: App Background too little, could be a bit more. "What it tries to solve" could use better phrasing, like the app also acts as a salesman or before topping data is the past is a hassle.
General Feedback: Preferred point form, proper labelling

REFLECTION

Exercise 1

I tried my best to not confuse Affordances & Signifiers and refer to the lecture slides back to back. During presentation, I murmured a bit, cause I have no self-confidence. I know confidence doesn't grow overnight but I got nervous.

Exercise 2

I'm find with analyzing the app, I got a bad experience picking up the items from the merchant. My slides should explain why. Though generally, I don't know how to socialize or even ask for directions.
