-Improved efficiency with a Recent Tags box contains recently used tags and allows user to bypass creating redundant tags

Round 2 Observations

Modes for selecting pictures were unclear

User 4 assumed you can only select one photo at a time- multiple selection mode was not visible or clear enough.  User 6 tried to click multiple pictures in the mosaic view but clicking the first one would just brings up that individual picture

Learnability with associating tags with pictures

All 3 users, upon creating a tag, believed the tag was automatically associated with the visible images, and no further action was needed.  User 5 tried to drag to recently added tags into the “Create Tag” box.  This was also a function of this being unclear on a paper prototype that it was a text input box.

Visual Affordances for Uploading Content

Users 5 and 6 both took a lot of time on the landing page to realize what they needed to do to upload content.  This had to do with the menu bar not being prominent, as well as the unclear text of “add content”.  They also seemed to immediately look in the other sections of the page first, focusing in the wrong place for what they needed to do.

Lack Of Description/Information Scent

Users had various problems with understanding what buttons, labels, etc meant- something that could be made much clearer with just a few words of descriptive text.  The selection mode in the mosaic, actions required for tagging, and the mark for review button all created some confusion.
