1
00:00:00,301 --> 00:00:03,083
Now, I'll cover prescriptive feedback.

2
00:00:03,083 --> 00:00:04,639
This feedback is directive.

3
00:00:04,639 --> 00:00:07,167
While it may lack
a constructive explanation,

4
00:00:07,167 --> 00:00:10,970
it certainly gives you insight into
the other person's perspective.

5
00:00:10,970 --> 00:00:14,966
This can be challenging to react to,
if you disagree, or

6
00:00:14,966 --> 00:00:17,226
if the request is not feasible.

7
00:00:17,226 --> 00:00:20,120
Add in these five paragraphs of text.

8
00:00:20,120 --> 00:00:22,642
Sometimes I get requests like this, and

9
00:00:22,642 --> 00:00:27,255
there simply isn't enough room to fit
in all the content in a given space.

10
00:00:27,255 --> 00:00:31,888
Often, the person isn't aware of the space
constraints because they have difficulty

11
00:00:31,888 --> 00:00:32,849
visualizing it.

12
00:00:32,849 --> 00:00:36,799
You can say, can we work together
to pare down the content so

13
00:00:36,799 --> 00:00:39,490
it comfortably fits within this space?

14
00:00:39,490 --> 00:00:44,266
I'd like to maintain the readability and
ensure the viewer can digest the content.

15
00:00:44,266 --> 00:00:46,735
Make the logo bigger.

16
00:00:46,735 --> 00:00:49,159
And make the button yellow.

17
00:00:49,159 --> 00:00:51,984
And move it 5px to the left.

18
00:00:51,984 --> 00:00:54,704
If you agree, feel free to revise it.

19
00:00:54,704 --> 00:00:57,827
But if you're unsure why
this is being requested,

20
00:00:57,827 --> 00:01:02,049
you can say can you help me understand
the reasons for those changes?

21
00:01:02,049 --> 00:01:06,533
You may also ask if there's a style
guide or component library to refer to.

22
00:01:06,533 --> 00:01:08,043
This needs x feature.

23
00:01:08,043 --> 00:01:12,601
This feedback may lack
context to the scope.

24
00:01:12,601 --> 00:01:18,237
It may make sense to say the goal
is to make an MVP in two weeks.

25
00:01:18,237 --> 00:01:22,605
We'll iterate on it later as time
permits and a need is identified.

26
00:01:22,605 --> 00:01:28,809
Often, designers create an MVP, or
minimum viable product, of a feature.

27
00:01:28,809 --> 00:01:31,638
It includes only the essential
aspects of a feature.

28
00:01:31,638 --> 00:01:36,249
This quickly validates an idea by
evaluating how customers use it.

29
00:01:36,249 --> 00:01:41,112
Over time, improvements are added in
increments to enhance the feature

30
00:01:41,112 --> 00:01:42,874
to its full potential.

31
00:01:42,874 --> 00:01:45,595
Communicate this strategy to the critic.

32
00:01:45,595 --> 00:01:49,572
If they insist and have the authority
to change the project scope,

33
00:01:49,572 --> 00:01:54,843
re-establish expectations including timing
considerations and resources needed.

34
00:01:54,843 --> 00:01:56,849
That's everything for this workshop.

35
00:01:56,849 --> 00:02:01,831
I hope these examples have prepared you
to handle feedback in your next review.

36
00:02:01,831 --> 00:02:03,045
For your reference,

37
00:02:03,045 --> 00:02:07,231
I've included example responses in
the instruction step that follows.
