Phase 5 Simulation

In the course of Phase 4 - Brainstorm All Possible Ways to Move TO, FROM or THROUGH an Activity, Nick's team made a list of items related to making or eating tacos. They eliminated anything they thought Nick might not recognize or be able to pick up with one hand. The team then traced out three maps and proceeded on to Phase 5.

In Phase 5 - Route Comparison and Selection, the team needed to pick one of the three routes. They used a series of questions to help them compare how Nick might do finding and buying either tomatoes or taco chips or taco shells.

Can Nick walk the route alone?	YES NO ?
Can Nick see and recognize any number over the aisle?	YES NO ?
Can Nick recognize and find the item on the shelf?	YES NO ?
Can Nick reach the item as displayed on the shelf or rack?	YES NO ?
Can Nick pick up the item with one hand?	YES NO ?
Can Nick carry the item to the checkout from its aisle location?	YES NO ?
Can Nick see the checkout area from where the item is located?	YES NO ?
Can Nick break or damage the item if he drops it?	YES NO ?
Can Nick pick up the item if he drops it?	YES NO ?

A summary of the team's findings follows:

ITEM	IMPORTANT CHARACTERISTICS	COULD BUY ALONE?
	Would need to buy more than one Might smash or roll if dropped Might be difficult to find in produce area Might not be ripe	Maybe
	Too many brands to pick from Might confuse with other chip types Might buy one with seasoning instead of plain Location on shelf may be too high or low to reach	Maybe
	Taco Bell has own brand Some brands come in see through packages Shells packaged to protect from breakage Small enough to pick up and hold with one hand	YES

The team settled on the route to the taco shells and then proceeded on to Phase 6—List the Specific Steps of the Selected Option.
