Reflection on Feedbacks about Group Project

Reflection on Feedbacks about Group Project

1. Daniel stated that visual and interactive representations are not drill and practice, quiz questions, tests or games, they allow a user to explore its content freely and this exploration is often externally directed. So our project should be kept to a single representation displayed on the screen. Since we had created several screens in our project, we will merge the contents and represent of information into a single screen in our final product.
2. In our visual representation some classmates wonder that is it possible that the angle of elevation is an obtuse angle? In the local textbooks, the angles of elevation and depression are smaller than 90 degrees. After discussed with Daniel and other classmates during the lesson, we change the angle of elevation and depression between 0 to 90 degrees.
3. In our project we found that the skill of placing a mouse cursor over a hotspot area is very useful. The information will appear when necessary and this helps save a lot of space in a visual representation with only one single display. But some classmates mentioned that it was quite difficult to discover the hotspot. As a result, we created some hints inside the visual representation in order to let user know about the hotspot.
4. Designing slider is another important feature to know for effective creating of interactive visual representations in Flash. In our group project we designed two sliders in order to allow user to observe the change of Angle of Elevation and Depression. User dragging the slider can change not only numerical values on the screen but also display the movement of the object. The changes in visuals tell the user if a variable represented by the slider increase, it also change the related graphic representation. Some classmates found that the sliders were started at "end". So we will correct it in our final version.
5. Some classmates pointed out that the plane and the ship will not move like this, they should move at a horizontal line. We will amend it in our final product.
