* Since March our work has focused on rapid prototyping and usability research.
 +
* We worked with Gerry McGovern and the WHO on an international top task study to help identify trends in COVID-19 related top tasks
 +
* We then worked with Gerry McGovern to run a Canada-specific study to focus primarily on the needs of Canadians
 +
* Similar studies were run by Norway, Ireland and New Zealand
 +
* This helps us identify where there are gaps in our current content, so we can plan for the content we need to develop
 +
* Key differences in the Canadian study were the tasks related to financial support as that wasn’t relevant in the WHO study
 +
* 90% English respondents, 10% French
 +
* We recruited participants on Canada.ca
 +
* It’s been interesting to see how anxious people are to help out during this time by participating in our studies
 +
* Interesting to see common top tasks across different audiences
 +
* We’d like to run the study again in a month or two, to track how needs are changing
 +
* We’d also be interested in running studies with individual provinces/territories to help identify needs at that level of government
 +
* Lisa will put together a “What’s involved” summary that we can share so that any provinces/territories that are interested in doing a study with us can get a sense of what’s required.
