Spring Term Studio 1: Background to paper prototyping

Blackberry Messenger Interface:

I will be prototyping the blackberry messenger service , this messaging system allows communication , between different blackberry devices through a identification service known as a blackberry pin here’s an example of the blackberry identification : BB pin 26BCDE5E

(a)          How can prototyping digital technology with paper be justified?

(b)         How do you make a paper prototype?

To make a paper prototype you use rough ideas and a simple layout of the device being used 

          (c)       How do you design and run a usability study around a paper prototype?
by making it as interactive as possible , the aim of the paper prototype is to show early interaction of a device , for example as a user clicks on a button the tester can simply give the test user a paper that shows the next step of the process.
