Sian Gwenllian AM: I am not challenging the fact that you have changed the performance measures—I understand that and having a broader way of looking is better in the long run I am just saying because there is been this change it makes it more of a challenge—whilst accepting why you have made the changes but it does present more of a challenge presumably because you have to look at more indicators and take evidence from different places But I take it that you are confident that the trajectory is going in the right way Kirsty Williams AM: Yes I think we are making improvements But you are right : it does make it more challenging But those changes are being made for the right reasons as I said whether that be at level 2 plus Look at English literature I understand why perhaps a performance measure around English was introduced but the effect of that was that significant numbers of children—and it must be said usually children who are entitled to free school meals—were suddenly not sitting English literature GCSE We have changed that performance measure and guess what ?

king: Well he is running the negotiations and doing a fantastic job of it, so he is great. princess: I'm glad that we haven't had a war in a while. Our people are the most important thing in this world. If it weren't for them, we wouldn't have this amazing palace, or lavish clothes, fine dining, or the simple happiness of a well-functioning kingdom. I appreciate everything I have in life. Thank you for your contributions to it all, as well. I do wonder what we might gain from an alliance with the eastern kingdom. king: Of course, sweety. We work very hard to avoid war at all costs. princess: Do you think we might be able to host a ball soon? king: Maybe, especially if the negotiations involve us getting a lump sum of gold. princess: What would we have to sell to gain the gold? king: Oh, nothing. They might just feel pressured to keep us as an ally, so they would pay us for that privilege. princess: I suppose that's the benefit of having a great army. Summarize the dialogue

#Person1#: Management is going through a big turnover these days. With Bill's retirement, and department realignment, we have lost about 1/3 of our managerial staff. They've been dropping like flies. . . #Person2#: Isn't that a good thing? Having fewer bosses means having less stress, don't you think? #Person1#: Actually, I don't think so.

resident worries about everything and everyone.
Project Manager: Finances that is what we have here what you drew We have battery power we have advanced chips and the sam the sensor The sample sensor and for speak recognition anyway So which you see the which is de o one of the most expensive parts So well we have sin one curve a design Rubber design And we had a special colour Suppose yellow is a special colour So just half a Euro for You have pushbuttons and an LCD display You have the total of seventeen Euros in production cost which is higher than the twelve and a half that we are permitted to use So easy What do we scrap Well think I had the best solution that I came up with is just to s take out the speech recognition User Interface: I would say that too Project Manager: Because the LCD has more support on customer side There are ninety one percent of the people or something like that But ninety percent who favour an LCD display and only sixty percent that favour speech recognition I think it is also harder to User Interface: we do not really have a extra function with the speech sample which you can not do with a normal remote control which people already do So Project Manager: I took that out So and so it is still stuck with thirteen so I had to take out the special colour I suppose And I did not see anything else I could take out I could take out the pushbuttons but we need those So generally what I came up with in order to be cou to to have production cost of twelve and a half Euros spe scrap speech recognition and the separate covers can account for the if people want it we will just then we will do it in black We will just deliver it in black have the it has all the function that it is supposed to have and if you want it if you want the custom design then you can buy the separate covers You make it d orange or whatever you want User Interface: I would I tend to disagree with you on that because the trend issue was a big issue when we started designing this Project Manager: It was a big issue but User Interface: So can not we just basically extend it to thirteen ? Project Manager: I will just go back let us just let us see what let us just see what we no we we have to be under twelve and a half the project is a nogo if we go over twelve and a half Industrial Designer: but there is another problem But there is another problem If we take another cover for instance black then we also need another button frame because black and black does not work obviously Project Manager: I think you that is what you were ass assigned to do really to to see how b th both those work together So I think it is I think it is y one of the it is a good way to to help people to make to keep the product trendy too Just keep you just make new covers for the for it And everything that is left is is the basic function that that we want our product to have Because the expensive parts are in either the advanced chip But we need that for the LCD display Then again we have the LCD display which is also expensive B but those go together And we could take out the curve Industrial Designer: Or say let us lose rubber take plastic User Interface: We could take out a curve indeed Project Manager: Could we could take out the curve Is that an option ? Industrial Designer: Although we are demolishing a little bit the style User Interface: I think the colour is more important than the really the curve because if you just end up with an entirely black remote control Project Manager: I think it is it it does ruin it but the fact that I t took that decision or t Took this example actually not really decision but the example is because we do offer the the possibility of adding your own custom covers So you can change any colour you want So it is just you deliver a basic remote control with a possibility to change you into whatever you want Industrial Designer: Can we then not also change the material ? We take plastic for the basic cover Project Manager: but I d it is something that is stuck into my mind is that something that really came forward from the marketing research is that people like the the the the squishy feeling of the spongy feeling of the Industrial Designer: We can put those to the to the other covers Project Manager: and it really makes it also makes it different from the existing remote controls because they are all plastic So which in in turn because it does not break Industrial Designer: But what do you then suggest we would lose ? Because we have to lose two things and I guess Project Manager: I al like I said I lost the speech recognition and I lost the special colour which would make this black a black and grey Industrial Designer: and that is enough ? Project Manager: that is that that that is enough because User Interface: So black and grey is Project Manager: I guess those are the basic colours I think those are basic col They want to Marketing: The people want to pay for for it so why why do we have to keep us on the twelve and a half ? Project Manager: To ensure the profit That that is th that is the order We are just we are the project team and we got our our orders from the pro from the boss of our company which say we do not want to spend more than twelve fifty for this Marketing: But we can take a risk Project Manager: But that is not for our that is not our decision to take We have a budget of twelve fifty per product User Interface: We need to stick to that Project Manager: Stick that I do not think it is really bad either I mean if we we have the the backup of or the backup design thing Marketing: I hope the people will like it Project Manager: I think they would do Th I think they do like because yo we you we agree upon that the that the the the cover thing was a nice idea because p you could have all sort of designs while at the same time just manufacturing one product one basic product which you could turn into any any taste you want So I think it is the best solution to make those cu custom covers for the design aspect Industrial Designer: Perhaps we should make m Project Manager: and keep the functionality between of within the th the boundaries of the your f your budget Industrial Designer: Perhaps we should make clear to our customer that we had to do this to stay under the cost And that is they know that this is an option and that we had to drop the option to stay under the cost that they know that Project Manager: Well I do not think Is it worth is it is it does it mean anything to the customer ? Like it like we do not care we do not care that you had to Industrial Designer: Of course Perhaps they no but perhaps they think the cover is such a nice idea let us that that then they that allow us to make some more costs We ca we we can at least tell them that Project Manager: but we did we did not get that So I think it is Industrial Designer: You do not know that Project Manager: it should either be a pack maybe we sh that should be sold in in the s in stores with with a standard cover or something Industrial Designer: No I am not talking about that cost but the one that g has given us the order to design this We could at least m make it like this like you said and then tell them we had to drop this and that just that you know It is an still an option but not for this price Project Manager: It is an option but it is true So actually it is not that much of an increase but We can not contact them It is just the order that we got So that is what we got to go with So it is either one fi just just to get it f just to get it through final it is either turned into plastic drop the squishy feel make it make it more breakable or turn it yellow So It is something we have to decide on Industrial Designer: I would say lose the curve and the colour Project Manager: I say lose the curve Oh that is true we could lose the c I forgot that sorry the curve So User Interface: So which curve is that ba Project Manager: That is just this one just d this is the banana curve User Interface: that is basically that curve Project Manager: So this would this would be straight User Interface: So we could you still have the comfort Project Manager: No no that would be a curve inside the thing I guess No would ju then it would just be a straight remote Just like like that Which would turn it into something far more ordinary we could make it yellow then but You second that you second that we lose the curve User Interface: No that it would turn out to be a pretty straightforward remote control So that is not really that Project Manager: So I think it would be a good idea to keep the curve to separate it from the rest of the remote control world so to speak So we keep the curve So the only only solution is either to use the l y lose the yellow or lose the rubber And I am in favour of keeping the rubber because it has more more advantages than the colour yellow has User Interface: I would say I would agree with you on the colour because that is an extra option an extra service we can deliver for a little bit of more money So we can always do that Project Manager: I guess people are willing to pay for that So I think we can take that option and just with with the idea in the back of our head that you can customise your remote control So I think that would still make it a nice product we are final on that So it is too bad we can not make the whole super thing But anyways we are here
They all agreed that speech recognition could be taken out, because LCD had more support on the customer side, and it did not give an extra function compared to other normal remote controls. As for the special colour, they had some disagreements initially, since User Interface thought it could not reflect the current trend anymore if it was taken out. However, after evaluating dropping other features such as rubber or curve, they agreed that both of them brought more advantages than the special colour. Besides, the colour could be made up by using special covers.

#Person1#: Welcome Mr. and Mrs. Carnwell, please take a seat. #Person2#: Okay. #Person3#: Thank you. #Person1#: So I understand that your family spending has skyrocketed and you want to start budgeting. #Person2#: Yes that's correct. Frankly speaking our household income is relatively high and we have never had any money problems, but I think this is the main reason as to why our spending has gone out of control. #Person3#: We have two kids and with allowances, paying their credit cards, ours and not to mention our mortgage and car payments. With the recent economic downturn, my husband's business has suffered and now we need some advice as to how we can prepare a family budget. #Person1#: I see. Well you have come to the right place. First what we need to do, is determine your cash flow. Knowing how much money is coming in will help us allocate spending to different categories such as mortgage, education, groceries, etc. #Person3#: Yes,that makes sense. #Person1#: Secondly, I need you to bring all of your receipts for the last two to three months. That way, we can determine what your average expenditures are and see which category you are spending money on the most. Usually, your fixed costs are higher and we cant do much about that, but we can usually trim your variable costs such as entertainment or clothing. #Person2#: Great! We will do that then! Now how about we treat you to a nice dinner? #Person1#: That's another thing. If you really want to stop spending so much money, throw away at least half of your credit cards!

Project Manager: Right well done Catherine Gab Gabriel let us let us hear from you on on on such things Industrial Designer: Do you need the border ? User Interface: I am just going to use the PowerPoint so while this is warming up So I am doing the user interface design and basically as far as methods I was I was looking looking at looking at already existing remotes trying to find some inspiration from designs that are already out there Thinking of what we can retain what we can do away with what we what we can perfect a little bit as far as design we do not want to do something that is too radical of a change I guess I mean people want a remote that is familiar that has their favourite functionalities and and does the basics but so we can improve what is out there and maintain that the basic functionality that people want so things that seem like absolute musthaves would be a volume control so updown keys for that channel keys updown but then also a numerical key pad so that they can just key directly to the channel that they want rather than doing updown and a mute button one thing that I did not include here that I forgot that we talked about last time was doing some sort of lock function I do not I do not know that is one possibility And so in the research that I was doing there is basically two types of remotes ones that are engineering centred and ones that are more user centred which I do not know if I can access the web page from here but I can show you So this is a engineer centred one so you see it is rather busy but it also let us you play your movie stop your movie fastforward all this freeze frame and this is a user centred one it is it is easier to g just glance at this and see what is possible to do you are not going to be staring at it for five minutes And I judging from what what we all talked about during our last meeting I kind of gathered that that is what we were going after or the direction we were going in at least So the engineering centred ones provide a lot of functionality but it can be a little bit overwhelming so the user centred ones just focus on ease of use and this sort of overlaps with what the marketing person Reissa because we we need to find out what what people want before we make firm decisions on this Project Manager: Great Now that is I just have a q a q question for you This w research that you have been doing looki looking at other you know existing units stuff have you found that anyone else has do has looked into the locking function or User Interface: No that that that seemed like a novel idea as f as far as I know I mean obviously another exists like you like you said in in mobile phones That was sort of the inspiration for it I have never seen that with in in all my years in in the remote business I have have not I have never seen a locking functionality I do not know what do you guys have a a yea or nay on that a feeling about whether that is really necessary ? Project Manager: I would say it is If it is simple to do which I think it probably should be even if it is a physical you know a f a like a f a physical switch or a physical cover for the remote even something like that then yes it is like you know like s you said earlier on ab ab ab a flip thing something like that but you know being physical Look into I have had word down from head office that something that we should be centred well something we should take into account is we have got to keep the corporate image within this remote control unit It is got to d look like it is in the R and R You know the the company it is it is from what I can see from our other products are yellow with blue writing on them User Interface: Right And our motto is is we put the fashion in electronics Project Manager: We put the fashion in electronics There you go User Interface: I think I think we have to carry that mental Project Manager: So it is kind of got to look it is got to look new and s you know something fashionable If if remote control well if telephones can be fashionable then maybe remote control units can be User Interface: Well these I think we can so we talked about the layout in my presentation and what I did not mention yet really is is the sort of like the ergonomic design I t I think we can make big improvements over these two that you see here I mean everything is going t ergonomic you know there is you know mice for your computers that are very ergonomic and keyboards and that could be one of our niches p sort of in the market I guess Project Manager: Reissa Let us plug you in baby Marketing: Where does it go into ? User Interface: then you just have to do function F eight and it should come up Marketing: Well function F eight No Project Manager: w it it just takes a wee while User Interface: it just takes a second
In the presentation from User Interface, he first made sure of the position of the team’s remote control —— a remote control with basic functionalities and with some improvements. The must-haves would include volume control, channel keys up-down, a numerical keypad, a mute button and would exclude the lock button which was discussed in the precedent meeting. He made an introduction of two types of remotes: engineering centred ones which provide a lot of functionality and user centred which focus on the easiness of use. Later, the team discussed the locking function which Project Manager expected greatly, and also on the integration of the corporate image into the design of the remote control. At last, regarding the layout of the remote control, User Interface would like to make some improvements over two buttons concerning the ergonomic design.
