Clean Energy Regulator Technical Proposal
Design
Must
Be suitable for personas
Follow colour scheme of Clean Energy Regulator website
Adhere to the usability principles
App Title
Clean Energy Data Comparer
The Problem
Criteria
Prescribed
Provide functionality to search the database for the total amount, maximum, minimum and average installations of different renewable energy types.
Ability to search the database by the categories energy type, state(s), postcode(s) and year(s)
Incorporate the usability principles into the user interface design of the application
Self determined
Create these according to accessibility, learn ability and effectiveness
Create these according to personal, social, economic factors
Create keeping in mind the personas and mention the ones affected by each criteria
Provide an option for the user to change the language so Betty Johnson can overcome language barriers of the application's information
Allow users to change text size of the application so Betty Johnson can easily read information despite her long-sighted vision impairment
Ensure the navigation of the application is intuitive and learnable as indicated by usability guidelines and determined by the use of recognisable icons
Apply elements of CARP by using a consistent colour scheme and layout that aligns with the Clean Energy Regulator site, while including an option for users to manually adjust colour contrast to cater for Emma Smith with colour blindness
Display data through text and visuals to ensure students such as Emma Smith engage with the application and understand specific data trends, patterns and relationships
Constraints and Limitations
Mobile Application
Designed for students in years 8-10
Must be able to search database by
Energy Type
State(s)
Postcode(s)
Year(s)
Impacts
Personal
Provides students with a greater understanding of historical and current installations of various renewable energy sources in Australia
Gives students a method of researching data for assessment tasks
Allows students with an interest in this topic to engage further with information from the application
Social
Learning about current renewable energy installations provides insight into Australia's progress in increasing our clean energy production and how that affects the environment
Gives classes an opportunity to learn about renewable energy installations in Australia and grow their understanding of its history
Economic
Access should be free and not require an account of any sort to use the application
Development of the application would be funded by the Australian Government as part of expanding the Clean Energy Regulator Scheme's educational resources
Existing Solutions
Emissions Reduction Fund
Renewable Energy Target
National Greenhouse and Energy Reporting Scheme
Australian National Registry of Emissions Units
User Interface
Usability Principles
Learnibility
Easy to learn the functions and uses of the application
Users can quickly learn to find desired information
Easy to learn the navigation of the application
Usefulness
Value: Information and functions provided to the user should be relevant to user's task and context
Relevance: Should provide necessary utilities and address the user's needs
Safety
No sensitive data should be entered by the user
Consent Prompts
Effectiveness
users can easily find the information they seek
Outputs need to be presented clearly for easy interpretation by the user
Users can complete tasks accurately and efficiently
App must engage younger students due to relatively dry data
Accessibility
Accessible Images
Screen Reading
Language
Text Size
Colour Contrast
Multimedia
Adaptable to all Platforms
CARP
Contrast
Can be applied to use of:
Font
Colour
Proportion
Scale
Can be used with colour and size to create a hierarchy and signify importance
Repetition
Can be applied to:
Use of font, colour, alignment, size
Page constructs, sections or product layouts
Provides predictability and learnability through the reuse of elements
Alignment
Horizontal alignment - left, right, justified, centre
Vertical alignment - top, middle, bottom
Allows users to effectively scan information
Proximity
Groups 'like' elements together to infer a relationship
Creates more scannable content
Users can accomplish their goals much more efficiently
Evaluate
User-interfaces
low-fidelity non-coded prototype digital solution
personal, social and economic impacts and consideration to identify risks
Accuracy and Efficiency of Algoithms
Make refinements and Recommendations
prescribed and self-determined criteria
Communicate
Technical and Non-technical audience
Development Process of the Prototype Solution
Algorithms
User-interface Sketches
User-experience Requirements
Solution Wireframe
Selection and Justification of Development Tools and Language
