please take reference from the group reference report and this is my prototype you need to paste in the report.Thanks.

This assessment is intended to examine all of the cs2003 learning outcomes, as specified in the Learning Outcomes and Marking Criteria section below. DESCRIPTION OF THE ASSESSMENT For the assessed part of cs2003, you are required to write a usability engineering report for a prototype application or device that you will develop as a group activity. The group task will be set from a range of design concepts which will be published on Blackboard Learn in advance. In this assessment, you will plan the design process, prototype the application or device, and iterate and evolve the design using evaluation to get feedback on its usability. All of this will be done through following an appropriate usability engineering (otherwise known as user-centred design) lifecycle. This task involves group work, but it will not be assessed as a group. You will work in your existing Level 2 groups for cs2001, but the assessment will be different to this. Working in the same groups will allow you to build on the relationships and skills that you have already developed together, and you will be able to deploy some of the learnings that you have already used in this project. However, the task that you will undertake is different: each group will be allocated a project type by the module leader. This will include a system specification and basic details of its intended operation. Beyond this design remit, you will be free to interpret all other aspects of the system specification. While the group design project will be performed as a group with a group submission report, your mark will be based on an individual report of this activity. This will include elements of your own personal research or usability evaluation activities, as well as a reflective discussion of your decision-making process, data analysis, and design choices. Any changes to group membership will need to be fully justified, discussed with the module leader, and agreed in writing. To pass the coursework, you will devise a plan on how to identify user requirements, then design and evaluate prototype applications or devices. You will need to think about and reflect on the methods, techniques and tools that you will use to carry out the coursework, and then implement these. To do this, you are expected to draw from the material covered during the module. This assignment should be written up in the form of two reports, as outlined in the Format of the Assessment section below. CS2003 Usability Engineering Assessed Coursework for 2019/20 Updated October 2019 2 of 6 De pa rt m en t o f C om pu te r S ci en ce You are strongly advised to begin this assignment as soon as possible, not only to ensure that you meet the submission deadline, but also so that you may attempt to complete the assignment to the best of your abilities. This will make the coursework more manageable for you and your team, and far less of a burden when set against the rest of your other assessments. LEARNING OUTCOMES AND MARKING CRITERIA The learning outcomes for this assessment are the same as those for the module, namely that you should be able to: 1. Identify and describe relevant usability engineering principles used in the context of the usability evaluation scenario with references to the appropriate research literature; 2. Explain and justify the role of the appropriate usability engineering methods and techniques used within the context of the usability evaluation scenario; 3. Design a usability engineering cycle (i.e. programme of work) for the evaluation of the prototype application. The following two tables describe the way that assessment and feedback will be used in the module for the individual assessed coursework report. Table 1 covers the threshold learning objectives (LOs): you need to pass all of these to pass the module. In this table, each LO is mapped to its individual assessment criteria, so that you can determine what is required to a pass (and what may result in a fail). Table 1 also provides guidance beyond the threshold nature of the LOs which can be used to help you understand the sorts of content that would be expected of you in your answers that relate to these LOs, and which will help contribute to higher overall grades. Table 1, however, is not used to directly calculate your overall grade, as it deals with each individual LO
