People
Activities
Contexts
Technologies
People undertake activities, in contexts using technologies.
Part A
In this assignment, I will firstly perform a PACT analysis on a proposed E campus student information screen project.
I will be doing this assignment to embed information technology into Middlesex university’s various campuses to enhance the “public” experience of the students and staff.
Installing student information screens in prominent positions around the university is an idea in which I will be focusing on bearing in mind that these information screens are to display a variety of up-to-date information of interest to students and others.
I will carry out my analysis in a correct and fair manner. To do this I will gather as much information as I can to help me build a strong conclusion.
I will get my information via:
Questionnaires
Surveys
Discussions
Interviews
Carrying out a PACT analysis will help me understand the current situation as well as allow me to see where improvements can be made. It is also useful for design and will hopefully provide an indication of how I can build a better version in the future by allowing me to conclude with better ideas.
My PACT analysis
People - Students, lecturers and visitors to the university.
Activities – How the activity is currently carried out.
Context – the environment of the activity.
Technologies – the tools that are used and how new developments may be used.
My PACT analysis will consist of people, activities, contexts and technologies.
The people in this case will be students, lecturers/staff and visitors to the university.
In the case of activities, I will be answering questions that arise during analysis and discussions. I will be answering questions like:
1) How is
