Dear DILL7 students,
congratulations for the very good presentations of today!! You find the recorded presentations in LALO and I invite you to continue to discuss more about user centred evaluation.
What all of you have done very well: the context of the Digital Library and its values togher with the theory of user studies and the priorities of Digital Library were very clear to all of you: very well done.
What you can improve: specific aims and objectives of your evaluation project. Using a statement cited by Carla Colombati: THINK BIG AND ACT SMALL. You should be very narrow in choosing concrete and specific objectives related to specific outcomes and impact you want to achieve at the end of the evaluation project. Priority has to be given to objectives which match the values of the Digital Lirary and the user needs.
Methodology and methods are not the same: the first is the phylosophical approach of the research, the second is including the tools of collecting data.
To be continued....!
