Meeting with Nancy Noble

Today, Professor Nancy Noble subbed for Professor Gomes. We went over the "Day in Our Life" Persona Scenarios with our groups. After class, she offered to give feedback to students who wanted them.

Noble offered excellent feedback, telling me to narrow it down and not to make any generalized assumptions. After discussing with her the issues of sorting at Stonestown she told me to phrase my problem like this:

"Customers who frequent Stonestown (you can change it later) may not be aware of zero waste in San Francisco that is currently in use."

And to phrase my purpose system like:

"The purpose of this study was to develop or create a system that will spread awareness of the importance of zero waste."

She also told me because Stonestown was so close to campus, it would be too easy and to get out of our comfort zones and find a place new and a little farther away.
