8. What we did Lab Observation
We prepared a field observation with the following steps:
Give people photos, paper sheets, post-its and pens;
Ask them to organize the photos the way they do it with their own photos;
As a group was found they were asked to place them in a sheet;
Finally, they would have to write the name of the groups in the post-it and place it in the right sheet.

9. What we did
Lab Observation

10. What we did Lab Observation Advantages
we were able to see how people organize their photos
they had real photos, just like at home
they had some random photos, but somehow they could be grouped
we asked them to talk loud as they were finding the groups

11. What we did Lab Observation Disadvantages
users were not personally related to the photos
as so, they didn’t make the exact same groups they would have, if the photos were familiar
BUT…
we asked them, in the end of the session would they organize the photos today, and the results were quite similar

12. What we did Lab Observation Results
people divided the photos by places first and they made a few subdivisions based on possible events
they did this division because they didn’t know which events were on the photos
BUT…
usual division is: event - date - place
