Day #7 Testing in theory and practise

The exercise was to write an entry on team´s experiences as testers. Students enjoyed the testing session as they met an other group of service designers, who had worked with the same Kiel marketing project, but stayed in Finland. One of the teams wrote that "it was very challenging not to push your own ideas or listen the idea at whole and then comment after the presentation".

Best grades for this day got team Syneka Jr. We have now three days of Seppo game left, and MakeKileGreatAgain is leading. The differences between the teams are under 100 points.

Testing session in Laurea, Leppävaara.

The exercise of the day was "What are your impressions on comparing Kiel and Helsinki from the tourist´s viewpoint." Teams made great videos and they seemed to had fun when making observations in Helsinki city centre.

The winner of the day was team MakeKielGreatAgain. They had really completed the task in full with they several short video clips and deserve full points!

Day #5 Customer Journey

All teams have done great work with customer journeys and they are worth developing further. Paper and pencil again seemed to be an effective tool in face-to-face work. We also used realtimeboard.com as well as other digital tools during the workshop.
