Data Gathering Activity

How often do you take the time to rate your experience when playing a game on your phone or tablet? Do you always go online to complete the survey at the bottom of the receipt you received at the store or restaurant you visited last week? If you are like most people, you probably do not have the time or interest needed to complete all of the surveys or other data gathering activities that you encounter throughout your day.

In the module resources, you read about a variety of data gathering methods and when each would be appropriate to use. For this discussion, think of a situation when you took the time to participate in a survey, observation, interview, or other data gathering activity. In your initial post, describe the activity and discuss the following:

· Why did you participate?

· What method was used?

· Why do you think the designers chose that specific method?

· How could the information you provided be used to improve user experience or to develop user requirements?

If you have not participated in any type of data gathering activity, read the blog post: https://timeinthemarket.com/im-getting-that-nielsen-survey-money/

 I’m Getting That Nielsen Survey Money , and use the author’s experience to develop your response.

· Suggest three other methods that could have been used to gather data in the situation and explain why the method you are suggesting would be appropriate.
