Situation

A city considers a complex disaster-alert app. Residents currently miss evacuation instructions when messages use unfamiliar landmarks.

e2

Method constraint

Using a polished prototype to sell a chosen solution or treating five interviews as statistical proof.

Constraints

  • State assumptions and protect affected people.
  • Do not treat the method artifact as causal proof.

Case steps

Work through each prompt using the evidence pack. These guided cases support self-directed practice; server-scored attempts are not available yet.

1
Open Response

Frame the decision and identify the affected actors and evidence gaps.

2
Open Response

Apply the method to compare at least two interpretations or responses.

3
Open Response

Choose one bounded next test, its owner, safeguard and rejection signal.
