Notes on the Meeting after Mar 5 Lesson:

Important
•⁠  ⁠An extra meeting after interview to combine the all the POVs
	- Time: Still TBC
•⁠  ⁠deadline the powerpoint before Mar 11 (Coming Monday)



Interview
 - the interview target are around the students who studying in different locations.
•⁠  ⁠Mainly start about the pain points of their location of study.
Maybe stakeholder too?


Suggest starting points:
•⁠  ⁠Why do you study in the library
•⁠  ⁠Follow up: Why not <somewhere> ? What is better than the library there?
•⁠  ⁠What did you need for studying (here)?
---- and Why <what those> needs

Personal thoughts on interview if no more ideas;
 - Pain points in the library
•⁠  ⁠Why do you put the bag / carry drinks when studying


Do we have plan for like who going to which location at what time?


Below are some key points, feel free to add more or maybe copy them to a share document


Focus area:
	Public Learning Space

Interview questions:
	Why are you studying in <location>?
	How is it better than <other location>?
	What are some essential things that you need?
	What are the most frustrating things you have encountered?

Interesting observations:
	Personal item storage problem
	Food and drinks
	Leaving behind personal items unattended (what if only one person?)

如果我哋嘅topic係public learning space，professor已經講明太悶，而我哋嘅focus point其實係問背後原因，可能係同learning environment有關，所以可能睇下在confirm下依家嘅方向同埋個名

呢度嘅observation背後嘅需要係重點，但係一部分可能問唔深，比如food and drink，好難問背後有咩需要，可能大壓力所以要讀書嗰陣食野？😂

同埋啲item storage嘅問題，我琴日有講過另一個方向，除左增加stoage，另外就係減少item，咁可能又同啲online learning有關（no textbook，paper and stationary）

overall，可能我哋最核心嘅其實係對學生學習時嘅需求同學習環境嘅研究，public learning space淨係一個未必咁好嘅出發點，或者一個interview area

My thoughts is we are going to see the pain points during their self studies

Studying Location / Food / Bags etc are all what related and probably related to what pain points they face such we could conclude the pain points → topic (focus) we had to be done.

Simply saying, these all are the entry points for our topic, you could ask as many as if you had idea. But at least the observation of different locations of putting bags or library seat usage has partially shown the pain point of not enough seat for self study .
