Visual design review of report template in preparation for writing
Closed, InvalidPublicMay 31 2019

Description

This task is to review the draft template I have created for the movement organizers research report, and to quickly discuss the design of personas and user journeys for the project. Just an hour meeting with a visual designer is all that is needed currently. Please see details in form below.

Movement organizers research [[[ https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Movement_Organizers | Summary ]]]

  • Contextual inquiry to better understand movement organizers, and what they need. This request is specifically about the design of the report for this project, and wanting any advice a visual designer might have.
    • [Optional] [Things everyone in the project should know]

Project details

  • Project goals (what you want to achieve)
    • goals of full project are listed above. --goals for communicating about the research findings are to be clear and nuanced in the way we describe our findings, and use high quality visual elements when the best way to describe something is visually. We have some basic frameworks like personas and user journeys, and will probably have more after we have completed analysis and synthesis of the research data. The bulk of the report will be text, and it needs to be easily navigable and usable by people from across the organization and people in general.
  • Target audience (who is this aimed for. Be specific)
    • Wikimedia Foundation staff will use the research findings (via this report) to decide what to do as a result of what we have learned in the research. This may be in the form of design sprints, or workshops (TBD)
    • This report will be shared publicly so organizations, communities, and anyone might be able to learn from it and build on it.
  • Outputs (what will be created when your project launches)
    • A report describing the background, origins and context of the research, as well as the findings from research. We will produce a set of personas and their journeys as movement organizers as well. TBD if there will be other frameowrks, as we are in mid analysis.
    • _____
  • Key performance indicators (how are you measuring your success) --How the research is received and able to be leveraged toward better working with / serving / supporting / collaborating with movement organizers toward what they need to accomplish with and for their communities.
    • The outcomes of the work that teams decide to do with and for movement organizers as a result of the learnings of this research.
  • Organizational goal (please link to current Wikimedia Foundation Annual Plan details)
    • _____
  • Timing (when is this due)
    • Planning: February - May 30, 2019 (field research in Argentina and Ghana), analysis, synthesis and creating draft artifacts (reports personas, etc). During this time, materials will be being built in draft form all along the way, and being iterated upon.
    • Production: TBD, but we think an initial (internal) report will be due June 1 - there is some discussion about it moving to June 15. Also, there will be a Legal review of the report before it will be made publicly available. (we are in conversation with Legal about timing.) Post legal review, there may need to be revision. Then will be translated into Spanish before public release. The final deadline is a presentation at Wikimania in mid August 2019, but report will be made public well before that.
    • Launch: TBD as we are still making decisions on the authoring timeline.
  • Additional context & direction (don’t forget THESE details)
    • [Optional]
