The Undercover Manifesto*★ Introducing UX from the ground up★ Change comes through small victories★ Delivery, not deliverables★ Good design today is better than great design
next year★ Working with people, not against them★ Action, not words

Why research, you ask...

Why research, you ask...
Research = insight =understanding = better UX

But research is...
Expensive! Long! Waste of time!We lack skills for it!

User research (for today)
The topic: Youth unemployment.
Research in-the-wild:★ Observation★ Contextual inquiry & Interviews★ Focus on interviews & forget target groups★ Be a ninja but not a voyeur
Weapons of choice: notepad, video & photo (phone is more than enough)
![Page 14: From research to ideation](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051412/54c788174a795993778b456b/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Interviewing 101★ PLAN AHEAD!★ Interview where the interaction happens★ Ask open-ended questions (look for HOW & WHY)★ Avoid a fixed set of questions★ Avoid leading questions (eg. What’s wrong with
your existing mobile application?)★ Focus on goals instead of tasks★ Encourage storytelling★ Ask for show & tell★ Master your small talk & improvise

Observation 101★ Explore the broader context (how does it all fit
together? what channels, what touchpoints?)★ Look for challenges★ Discover “hacks” and shortcuts★ Consider edge cases and extreme users

Research synthesis
Synthesis = sense-making through an iterative process of refining gathered data*
★ Identify opportunities (generative, change we can envision. Opportunities = solutions)
★ Identify patterns★ Discover the stories

From findings(it is hard to get a job) to opportunities (improve the recruiting experience) to ideation questions (how can we improve...?) to strategies (connect youth with jobs) to solutions (mobile job board).
Only ideas - not refined yet!

Tell stories. Part 1: The hero.
Persona - user model, a composite archetype based on research with real users.
★ Personifications, presented as a real person ★ Persona vs. Stereotype★ Distinct set of behavior patterns★ Can represent nonusers★ Persona types: Primary, secondary,
supplemental, customer, served, negative
![Page 25: From research to ideation](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051412/54c788174a795993778b456b/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
A design tool that also helps resolve the issue of:
★ The elastic user★ Self-referential design★ Edge cases
Part 1: The hero. Persona.

Tell stories. Part 2: Goals.
Goals are drivers behind behaviors.
★ Motivate usage patterns★ Don’t ask for goals. Reconstruct them. ★ Each goal in a simple sentence.★ Three types of goals:
★ experience goals (have fun)★ end goals (find a job)★ life goals (be successful in...)
