6. Storytelling is already part of UX…We just don’t call them stories You can use stories to enhance the usability work you are already doing.and You can use stories to help you start bringing people into the center of the process.
8. Listening Exercise Work in pairs - with someone you don’t know 1 minutes to speak - then switch Speaker’s job - speak about something relatively comfortable Listener’s job - just listen. Don’t have to talk, interrupt or fill silences. Talk aboutthe time on your way here thatyou were the most bored.
9. “Story” is not just a fancy word for broadcasting information Stories start with listening.
10. A story is shared by everyone who hears it First the storyteller shapes the story As they listen, the audience members form an image of the story in their own minds.
11. A story is shared by everyone who hears it The storyteller and the audience each affects the other and shapes the story they create. The most important relationship is between the audience and the story. The audience is a part of the story each time it is told.
12. A story is shared by everyone who hears it…but heard by each person in their own way
17. While you are listening,turn on your juicy story filter You are looking for stories that…. You hear from more than one source. Have a lot of action detail. Have details that illuminate user data Surprise or contradict common beliefs And are clear, simple, and compelling.
18. Structure the discussion to encourage stories “Have you ever [done something]?” “How often do you [do that thing]?” “What makes you decide to [do that thing]?” “Where do you [do that thing]?” “When was the last time you [did that thing]?” “Tell me about that.”
19. Look for patterns in the stories,just like any other user research data
20. These story fragments might grow into a story “When I’m waiting for a bus, I wish I had a way to know when it will arrive.” “I love seeing lots of people on the metro platform. It usually means a train will arrive soon.” “When the bus stop isn’t well marked, I always worry whether I’m in the right place.” “If I’m running late, I can drive if I’m going to miss the train.”
22. Data Persona Aged 30-45Well educated45% married with childrenOver half use the web 3-5 times a week65% use search engines Elizabeth, 32 years old Married to Joe, has a 5-year old son, Justin Attended State College, and manages her class alumni site Uses Google as her home page, and reads CNN online Used the web to find the name of a local official
23. Stories for your personas let you explore situations and ideas The persona as a character provides perspective The relationships create the context The imagery suggests emotional connections The language can suggest the voice of the persona
24. There is nothing more frustrating than waiting for the bus in the snow when you’re already running late for work. Sandra didn’t like snow much anyway, but she liked standing at her bus stop even less. Had she missed it? Was it even running with all this snow? She ran over her options in her mind. None of them were going to get her to work on time.
25. What design ideas does the story suggest? Put bus schedules on the web with real-time updates Send a text message and get a message back with the ETA for the next bus Signs at the bus stop saying how long until the next one Service alerts with emails about problems And stories help you explore ideas in context!
28. Stories can be used to create scenarios for usability testing They create a realistic context because they are based on real stories. They give you a range of stories and perspectives to draw on.
29. You commute to work on a suburban bus line. You have a meeting in the morning, and don’t want to be late. But, as you eat breakfast you see that snow is piling up on the road. Find out if your bus is running on time this morning. Transforming a story to a test task Turn the story to set up the situtation, then let the participant “finish the story” as the test task.

WQBy putting stories into this cycle, we’ve done something important… we’ve brought the people back into the process – perhaps explaining why it’s a “human” centered process.
KBBefore we dive into UX, I’d like to take a short diversion into a little bit about what we mean by stories. Mention stories are good stuffAnyone here think that you aren’t a very good storyteller?
WQ
KBDescribe the story triangle.
WQJust to give you a preview, let’s look at this diagram a different way.Builds around the circle, explain each one.You can see how the relationships shift, as we move around the phases: the central UX person starts as a listening, then moves into using the stories, sharing the stories and then back to an observer position.
Either
One of the most importatnt uses of stories are in personas.(Define, if needed – not They are based on dataBut, people are more than just data.Stories let you add context, perspective, and details.
WQ
WQ – Get AUDIENCE INPUT – then show all Each of these suggests a different technology solution.How to evaluate?Tell a story. Think about different stories that explores these or other solutions(Can a story make problems in the idea self-evident?)This can be an exercise in a longer workshop
