Scenario: Amy Johnson is a retired school teacher. At 78, her favorite part of the year is helping to audit the local elections. While her eyesight is not what it was, she is a perfectionist and cares greatly about having the audit done as concisely as possible. A veteran election auditor, Amy is the leader of her pair of 2. This means that while a partner reads her the ballots, she is responsible for recording the information. Amy has found that the fastest way to get this process done is to read and record straight down the ballot (instead of reading a particular race on every ballot), and instructs her partner to do it in this way. Today, she is auditing the presidential election. There is both a presidential and senate race and Amy is very excited. She is given a stack of 50 ballots to audit.

Design 1 (Efficiency)
| When Mrs.Johnson begins her task, this is the first scene she sees. This is just a login screen, where she can enter her username and password. When she logs in, she will be presented with her ballot-counter screen. |
|
|
| In this design, all options are large buttons. |
|
|
| The first race of the first ballot is presented. Mrs. Johnson can then select a button. When she clicks, she will be taken to the next race on this ballot. | ||
| The second race of the first ballot is presented. Again, Mrs. Johnson can select a button. There are back and forward arrows to allow her to fix mistakes. | ||
| After finishing the first ballot, she moves on to ballot number 2 and is presented with the first race again. | ||
| She is then taken to the second race on ballot number 2. | ||
| Mrs. Johnson is now on the last race of the 50th ballot. | ||
| After she is done with 50 ballots, she can choose to submit the results to her audit supervisor. | ||
| She is then presented with a screen, allowing her to choose to continue counting another set of ballots or to finish this audit. She clicks finish. | ||
| She is taken back to the entrance login screen. |
