TWE: Research: Checklist for Case Study #492
Comments
@adarosh Welcome back, and hope your 2024 is off to a good start.

Hi Ying @pandanista - Hope you had a wonderful holiday season! I took the break, so the issue status remains the same as last discussed. I believe the plan is for Nino and I to work together on the case study once she is finished with transcription? I also think we agreed to create this checklist over the course of completing the case study? Let me know if that’s still the plan! I have set this Friday (1/12) aside for admin. If you and/or Nino are able, I’d be happy to meet for a working session. Below are some resources that can guide next steps.

@adarosh - Thank you for the update, Angela! As a follow-up to yesterday's meeting, I have set up and sent out a meeting invite for a work session on Friday, Jan 12. I invited and messaged Nino, but I am not sure if she will make it or not. Thank you for gathering a few more resources! We can come up with a draft of a step-by-step case study checklist and set up the structure of the case study based on the resources we have accumulated so far. |
@adarosh Thank you for meeting with me today. We have made a lot of progress. :) As a follow-up to our work session, I added all the case study and qualitative usability interview sources we found in the Resources gathered section (see the items listed under 2.1). We have set up the case study report structure and created the template in the Research Template folder (see 2.3). Also, the RP017's case study report structure has been customized and is ready to go. Let me know if you have any questions regarding drafting a step-by-step checklist for conducting a case study in a new comment in this issue. Hope you have a speedy recovery. |
@adarosh Hi Angela, would you please provide an update?

Hi Ying- see below for update. Thanks! Progress: Met with Team Lead on 1/12 to review resources that were complied. Developed a structure for the case study report based on resources. Created template for report and saved to shared drive. Next steps are to finalize case study checklist for review. Can be available to meet with Nino as well if she will be joining issue. Will have checklist completed for Team Lead to review by next meeting. |
@adarosh If the step-by-step checklist draft for the case study is ready, please insert it in a new comment below. Thank you, Angela! |
@pandanista Please see below for a draft Case Study Checklist. There are places where it might be helpful to add links to Google Drive, which I have emphasized with caps (see sections: Review resources on background/definition of case study, Draft case study report)- we can discuss these notes in the team meeting. Also, I had to adjust the formatting to add the checklist as a comment, but can transfer to Google Docs if that would help with clarity. Let me know if you have any questions! Case Study Checklist:1. Develop a research plan
*Note: Section 2-6 don't have to happen linearly in most circumstances, so they are not sequential in order. 2. Review resources on background/definition of case study
3. Confirm that case study is an appropriate method4. Recruit participant5. Construct an interview guideIntroductory script
Interview questions (semi-structured or structured)

@adarosh I took another look at the checklist above, and added one bullet point in the section of "6. Develop an analysis plan":

@AndrewSalvatore Would you please do a peer review on the checklist in this comment? Please provide your feedback in a new comment, and mark the action items below to indicate that you have accomplished them. Thank you. Let me know if you have any questions. Action Items for Peer Review

@pandanista Hi Ying- Thanks for the feedback! Below I have suggested alternative wording, since we don’t necessarily want to verify assumptions but do want to ensure that questions map onto research objectives:
I also think the bullet would be more appropriate under the “Construct an interview guide” section, because that consideration should be part of the question development process. Thanks again for reviewing! |
Thank you, @adarosh. I have updated the wording, and I've assigned the issue to Drew for a peer review. @AndrewSalvatore Let us know your feedback and suggestions. Please follow the instructions in this comment. Thank you. |
@pandanista added this issue to the ux lead/pm agenda #315 (comment) |
@pandanista what are next steps for this issue? |
@adarosh and I will revise the checklist and keep it in a more narrow and specific scope. We will review the new checklist after the revision. |
@pandanista Hi Ying- I reviewed the case study checklist. Based on your feedback regarding the checklist being meant for just this analysis, as opposed to how to conduct a case study from scratch, it looks like we could cut everything before part 9 (Review and examine the case). The remaining sections look like a great guide for the analysis. Let me know what you think. Thanks! |
@adarosh I agree. Let's take out the steps before step 9, and draft an updated checklist in a new comment. |
@adarosh Please provide update

@pandanista Looks good to me! |
Thank you for reviewing this issue, @sunannie27. Closing this issue since we have copied the checklist into the action items in the next data analysis issue #493. |
Overview
We need to develop a step-by-step checklist for conducting case studies at HackforLA. This checklist will be used to analyze data collected from the RP017 research. This checklist can also be used as the basis for developing a Template for conducting a case study and the starting point for creating a Guide.
