Identify between six and eight people for each of your user groups who are willing to perform the card sorting exercise. For each person interviewed, record

What will be an ideal response?

User’s first name
The user category they belong to
The date and time
The name of the person conducting the interview
The results of the card sorting session including the card numbers listed as groups and the accompanying label for each group.

Note to instructors: It works best to grade this on based on adherence to the stated specifications in the homework problem. Here are some guidelines:
If there are less than six interviews, deduct 25 percent for each missing interview.
If the documentation (user's first name, date, time, name of interviewer) is missing for an interview, deduct 4 percent for each missing item of documentation.
Examine the raw data. If there is too much agreement, such as two interviews resulting in grouping where all but 2 items are in the same groups, this warrants a discussion with the group. If there are two interviews that result in exact agreement, there is a problem. In the six years of using this method, the authors have never seen two interviews produce the same results.
