Milestone 1: User stories and problem definition
Deliverables: A list of clearly articulated user stories (not prioritized) that appropriately reflect the problem(s) the modular learning initiative will solve.
Sub-milestones:
- Draft user stories
- Map user stories, v1
- Solicit stakeholder feedback (target 6-8 superusers/clients) [In-progress, target Oct 15 for completion]
- Integrate feedback
- Finalize user stories
Milestone 2: User story mapping and prioritization [partially already complete in Milestone 1]
Deliverables: A clearly articulated opinion on which user stories will be prioritized to guide subsequent milestones.
- Define prioritization criteria (both product and tech perspective)
- Identify subset of user stories to prioritize
- Tweak user story map to reflect priority, v2
Milestone 3: Approach speccing
Deliverables: An approach document that articulates possible approaches and solutions.
- Write proposed Approach Spec
- Write MVP Tech Spec (based on prioritized user stories)
- Create “Consumer Review 2.0” = Open all documentation for community review and input
Milestone 4: Wire Framing and user journey definition
Deliverables: Mock wire frames or design prototypes that outline the user journey based on the approach documentation.
- Design low-fi UX frames [IN PROGRESS]
- Light touch user feedback/usability testing
Milestone 5: Tech/arch Prototype
Deliverables: Low-fi tech prototype that can 1) serve as a proof of concept and 2) guide effort estimates for broader implementation
- Tech spec
- MVP Milestone planning [IN PROGRESS]
Milestone 6: Product Requirement Documentation*
Deliverable: Product Requirement Documentation that includes Overview of the initiative
Articulation of the problem(s) and the opportunity
Market evidence + user stories
Approach and solution
Wire frames
Any risks and dependencies
- Final PRD
*As the scope of this project evolved, PRD will be focused on Phase 1 and Phase 2, which future PRD work to follow incrementally.
