Micro lessons
Problem Storyboard
25 minObjective: Visualise user pain, desired outcome, and supporting context in five frames.
Activities
- Interview or review persona notes
- Sketch five key frames
- Annotate feelings and friction
Knowledge checks
- Can you articulate the emotional outcome?
- Where does the user struggle today?
Evidence Planning
20 minObjective: Select quantitative and qualitative signals that prove the prototype works.
Activities
- Define primary metric
- List qualitative clips
- Assign data capture owner
Knowledge checks
- Which metric indicates success earliest?
- What qualitative clip validates desirability?
Risk Sweep
25 minObjective: Document prototype risks and mitigations before build.
Activities
- List technical, policy, and adoption risks
- Rate likelihood/impact
- Define mitigation steps
Knowledge checks
- Which risk needs human oversight?
- What mitigation keeps the prototype safe?
