Section E: Spot the Error
Q1
D — Mia is the creator. The app is for the known user, Mr Lee, so line 4 should say 'Build the app for Mr Lee'.
Q2
A — A known user is someone else who will use the solution, not the creator. It should name a person you can ask, such as 'my grandparent'.
Q3
B — Sam is the creator, so Sam cannot also be the user. The user here is the group of people the solution is for: the Year 3 class.
Q4
D — A known user can be asked directly. Ava should use Ms Tran's answer to plan the app instead of guessing.
Q5
C — The known user group is the Year 3 class, so Leo must ask that group. Asking a Year 5 class would give ideas from the wrong users.
