  • developing personas helps to formalize the models so they can be documented, shared and used throughout the design process.
  • The most effective personas are going to emerge out of an audience analysis that includes interviews and real conversations with sample audience members as well as supervisors and stakeholders in the training.
  • Give this person a name and borrow traits from real individuals of the group if you were lucky enough to hold interviews. Describe your persona’s demographics, job responsibilities, motivations for taking the training, experiences at work, attitude toward online learning, skill and educational levels and so on.
  • you should have several personas that provide a tangible sense of your audience members
  • Keep the personas in mind throughout design and development as though they are someone you know.
  • Try to have conversations with sample members of your audience groups. Even a few conversations can help you remember the individuals behind the persona
  • Ensure the use of personas helps your team personalize and customize the design
  • Watch that stereotypes and social judgments don’t slip into your personas.
  • Build empathy for the audience groups.
