Lesson details
Key learning points

- The planning document needs to be selected to fit the digital artefact that's to be created.
- The software should be selected to meet the requirements of the digital artefact.
- User feedback is important to gather feedback from the target audience the product is designed for.
Keywords
Evaluation - considering areas of improvement highlighted by feedback and success criteria
User feedback - structured questions to ask others for their opinions to help improve a digital artefact
Common misconception
Once a product is completed it does not need to be improved if I am happy with it as the creator.
Listening to other opinions and referring to the success criteria of the client brief is essential to help develop a product that meets the client brief completely.
