What do you see?

tayenm1 — 2024-05-03 08:28:13 UTC

Why do you think a certain element/s is in the space of a specific person? Why?

tayenm1 — 2024-05-03 08:28:33 UTC

I think the person likes to have everything they use and need most on their desktop, they like to keep everything still organized in their own way.

What do you think the person values? Why?

tayenm1 — 2024-05-03 08:28:46 UTC

This person values having everything they use most on their desktop. While still having enough space on their desktop so its not too "busy".

How do you think this space is used? Why?

tayenm1 — 2024-05-03 08:28:58 UTC

The space is used efficiently, they have everything they need on their desktop, they have their needed files and applications.

What activities happen in this space? Why?

tayenm1 — 2024-05-03 08:29:11 UTC

The space is used for personal things as well as work things, the person values having everything they need in the space, yet they still have enough space to see their wallpaper.

What pattern or theme do you see across the different photographs in your group? Why?

tayenm1 — 2024-05-03 08:29:22 UTC

Most of the applications are on the left while the games are on the top right, very few files are used so there's more space on their desktop.

What do you see?

sarahhildebrandt33 — 2024-05-03 08:29:34 UTC

Do you have any indication of the goals or pains of the person? Why?

tayenm1 — 2024-05-03 08:29:36 UTC

There's no pain apparent from the persons desktop, they have most applications and games they need, but few school/work files on their desktop.

What do you think the person values? Why?

h85xhfjn8c — 2024-05-03 08:33:17 UTC

This person has a wallpaper of flowers. Neutral colors were used. A to-do list on the Home Screen for a reminder of what to do. All the important files are on the home screen.

Why do you think a certain element/s is in the space of a specific person? Why?

h85xhfjn8c — 2024-05-03 08:37:41 UTC

This person may like flowers or just like the photo and use it as their wallpaper. For the To-Do list this person uses this to stay on track with work. Also, specific images on the home screen may be used for current projects.

h85xhfjn8c — 2024-05-03 11:45:40 UTC

This person values being on top of their work by having their to-do list on their Home Screen. Also, they value organization because the files are organized.

h85xhfjn8c — 2024-05-03 11:47:41 UTC

This space is used productively. Because this is the home screen of this person's laptop, which is used for work, it is organized and well set up to see the dates and all the necessary apps that would be used.

h85xhfjn8c — 2024-05-03 11:49:52 UTC

Activities such as making notes of what needs to be done and when the dates are. The weather icon also shows the temperature for a specific day. The necessary files are on the desktop.

h85xhfjn8c — 2024-05-03 11:54:42 UTC

Pastel colors are mainly used for the desktop background, giving it a dreamscape feel. Also, with Tayen's wallpaper, more dark colors are used, giving it a light and dreamy feel.

h85xhfjn8c — 2024-05-03 11:56:23 UTC

Something I would consider also doing is adding a to-do list to my desktop to keep up with all the different tasks and be able to see it every time I open my laptop.

24rdf55 — 2024-05-09 14:19:55 UTC

I see a wallpaper with flowers and a clear calendar of the current month in the middle of the desktop. I see a few folders that seem school-related, but nothing else on the desktop.

24rdf55 — 2024-05-09 14:21:40 UTC

I think the calendar is in this person's space because she is organised and time efficient. The calendar may make it easy for her to keep track of assignments that are due within the month.

24rdf55 — 2024-05-09 14:23:18 UTC

I think this person values work/school. Most of her apps that are open are school related and the folders on her desktop may also be school related. The wallpaper is simple but pretty to avoid distractions.

24rdf55 — 2024-05-09 14:24:35 UTC

This space is the desktop of Nikola's computer. It is her workstation, so it must be neat and organized.

24rdf55 — 2024-05-09 14:27:47 UTC

Nikola uses this laptop for work, so she may do school assignments on it. She also may use it to relax after her work is done; watching a show or playing a game on it.

24rdf55 — 2024-05-09 14:30:00 UTC

We don't have much in common based on our desktops. We might have some of the same apps installed for our schoolwork, but visually there is no theme between us.

24rdf55 — 2024-05-09 14:32:25 UTC

I have no indications of the pains of this person, her desktop is clean and organized. (a pain might be that her laptop is slow because of all of the open apps). The goals are also not apparent but i could assume that she has a good work ethic.

2024-05-09 14:41:45 UTC

I see a very open and organised desktop with personal files and work/school files separated onto different sides of the screen.

2024-05-09 14:43:36 UTC

I think this person has a very organised style and likes to ensure that work and pleasure remain separated.

2024-05-09 14:45:21 UTC

This person values visually appealing aesthetics and tidiness around their work space

2024-05-09 14:47:47 UTC

This space is used in a very efficient and orderly way. Items are grouped together with like ones and the space isn't cluttered

2024-05-09 14:50:22 UTC

Activities such as work and recreation take place. The person might also use the space to look for information regarding weather patterns for the day/week

2024-05-09 14:52:14 UTC

Most of the desktops are light in colour which gives a softer feel. The one darker desktop still has a more dreamlike feel than realistic feel

2024-05-09 14:53:54 UTC

The pains of the person are not apparent from their desktop. Their goals could be increased productivity as their desktop contains files used for work/school.

sarahhildebrandt33 — 2024-05-09 15:37:45 UTC

I see files for everything the person needs, there's games as well as applications on the screen. Most of the files are placed on the left side and some are also placed on the top and bottom of the right side.

What pattern or theme do you see across the different photographs in your group? Why?

h85xhfjn8c — 2024-05-13 15:24:34 UTC

h85xhfjn8c — 2024-05-15 08:31:05 UTC

There is no specific theme throughout the different desktops except for all the most critical files and applications on the desktops. There is a pattern of organization in common throughout the various desktops.
