      - error messages are clear and specific
      - Contrast of colours
      - general instructions for the user top window
      - audible reading of text on the screen
    - - safety
        
        validation that Koala monitoring data has been submitted
        
        Hide password when scientists login
        
        allow scienitsts to change their password if unable to login.
      - learnability
        
        Consistency of widgets
        
        Consistency of design
        
        Use the same colors throughout the program
        
        Simplicity and predictable layout of windows
  - - - must login in with username and password
      - Given the option if password is forgot, link will be sent to the user through email, phone or username to allow the user to reset their password by sent link.
      - Homepage will appear, user information apparent, user able to chose between map, graphs and table data buttons. Each will take the user to a different section
      - Table page will display all data that the volunteer delivers regarding location, time and koala count. The data can be scrolled
      - From the homepage, scientists are able to click on the graph button allowing them to view trend models of the Koala population as a whole or as individual ages, and create a table display the percentage difference between the populations of two years
      - From the homepage, the scientists can also access the map where they can search by LGA (local government area), survey area, a certain year and certain age of a Koala.
    - - Map displayed, when the user clicks on a location listed then the map will update to that location for the user. If the user enters further information regarding location, the map will update again.
      - The user will then have to enter how many Koalas, of the different ages, they have found
      - The user will then sbumit the data they've entered
      - Notification box will appear if the user's information has been stored.
  - - - strings
      - integers
      - float

  - - - Buttons
      - Checkbox
      - radio button
      - entry box
        
        login details
        
        password details
  - - - Submit
        
        While on an active volunteer tour, the public and scientists can add their koala count to the database
      - Search
        
        Scientists can search the database by location, age of Koala
      - Login
        
        The scientists were able to login into the application
      - Clear
        
        All user inputs could be cleared from the entry boxes
      - Create Graph
        
        Used to allow scientists to determine the percentage difference between two years of Koala populations
    - - Modularity
        
        The scientist is able to login in to the application and access information not available to the volunteer for protection of the data
      - Sequence
        
        When the application is run, the window will configure and images, labels and buttons will be displayed to the User
      - Iteration
        
        If the user enters an incorrect sight name then a message box will appear to inform the user that the site name is not in the database.
        
        If the user enters a wrong email or password, then the user will be displayed a message-box with the option to change password if forgotten
      - Selection
        
        User can select between three options of the age of the the koala
  - - - space to ensure all information is easily readable
        
        Space was used throughout the solution i.e the volunteer data submission page to ensure that the user could effectively understand.
      - colour and tone to ensure that the colours are correctly contrasted to ensure the ease of navigating the solution
        
        The colour purple is used to ensure contrast of purple and white to ensure complete readability. Tone is used when bolding titles and subtitles
      - Line, shape, texture and form which will enhance the aesthetically appeal and learnability of the solution
        
        borders were placed around each image in black to contrast witht the white background and enhance the aesthetic appeal
      - proportion and scale is used to make the program aesthetically pleasing but also to ensure that information is not grouped too close together
        
        Proportion and scale were used especially in the scientists section where searching by location, koala age and year were available to ensure that the information wasn't group and therefore, understandable
    - - Proximity for the purpose of accessibility; to ensure that the user can easily navigate the solution by understanding the relationship between texts
        
        Proximity was used throughout the solution to define relationships with between texts i.e when the user had to input site name.
      - Balance to achieve symmetry of the interface which helps with the aesthetic appeal
        
        Balance was used in the scientists homepage where two images of the same size and design were place on either side of the screen to demonstrate aesthetic appeal and context
      - Hierarchy to identify the relationship between texts and to allow the user to be attracted to the titles before the information
        
        Hierarchy was apparent on each page to help the user identify what the is required for each page i.e the volunteer page where instructions are in large bold writing at the top of the screen.
      - Contrast can be used to identify importance
        
        Contrast was shown using design of the dark purple and white to ensure learnability
      - Use of Repetition will allow the user to easily navigate the solution and allow the program to stay consistent with a certain theme/colour
        
        The use of dark purple and white is used constantly throughout the program with the only exception being the graphs displayed
      - Alignment allows the user to effectively scan the solution for information
        
        Alignment is demonstrated on the scientists homepage where several buttons are clickable to allow the user to enter the map, table and graph pages. These buttons are aligned with the center of the screen allowing the user to effectively navigate the solution
