Determine remaining question types

[ejzn]

Can you look at the remaining question types for the group activity on top of the ones we have already( Webcam and TTF types)? We will then implement them into the application.

[ejzn]

Examples:

1. Random Facts,
2. Animal with the same letter as your first name or favourite animal
3. Worst summer job,
4. What would your super power be.
5. Which celebrity are you like/look like?

Should all these go in? CC @nocturnedesign

@ejzn Sorry for the slow reply, interview today. The types of questions we can ask really depends on the limitations of our system. Will the users try to beat each other at answering questions or collectively decide upon an answer? Is there a time limit? I would break it up by response type and then pick what we can put in to the system. I think all of the types of questions you suggested can go in. Here are a few that I'll expand on:

1. Multiple Choice/True-False
2. Trivia Questions (There are a number of free quiz DBs online)
3. Image Recognition + Multiple Choice
4. Match face picture/video to person's name
5. Identify the correct name for the object in the picture
6. Fill in the Blanks
7. Match the fact to the person

Well I think that we shouldn't be going for real-time stuff, although we technically could... but really for the purpose of this we just want something where the people can be force-fed as much information about their collaborators as possible so that they can work better together. We don't have a week for them to use it or a massive user base or something. So we should probably stick to as basic as possible.

1. We have true/false already
2. Trivia wouldn't really say much about each other
3. A random picture??
4. We could do that - upload a picture/webcam? Probably this or number 7
5. don't think thi sis going to help getting them to know each other.
6. This could be interesting - what would implementation look like though?
7. Yes - I think this is duable

Awesome ideas, but we need something we can implement RFK. Can we refine these to 4 types we are going to do, and then put them into the issue at the top? Maybe something like 1, 3 (but video?), 6, 7?

[ejzn]

@nocturnedesign You have the final say, can you update the issue? Just make sure the scope is doable...

At this point I'm looking at the program as a way to accelerate past small talk in groups. Instead of going through general small talk topics one-on-one with each person in your group, it's all done at once. I'd like some feedback on the questions and ways to improve them. At this point, I can't think of any questions that can integrate the video features. I'm also wondering if we can use the match-up to match people to binary categories. ie/ Are you a morning or night person? -> Match up each person in your group to either morning or night.

Match up are interesting. This is a good start. I have a couple ideas as far as some of the questions you've asked. For a video type, could we not record them asking the question? This gives at very least some initial feedback on the look of someone and the idea of repeated exposure -- although it'll be just one thing.

*time they use it.
