  • 12.Participant #1: ● ● ● Understood graphic talking about symptoms of heat illness, what to do is not as clear on both sides because of stars. CALL 9–1–1 is important as first step on heat stroke side. May Lose Consciousness is more of a symptom. Illustration is clear. Participant #2: ● Spanish is good, but the italics makes it look secondary, a little hard to read. Participant #3: ● Most important thing to do is call 9–1–1 when having a heat stroke, so that should be first.
  • 13.Iteration #2
  • 14.Participant #4: ● ● First impression is to be aware of heat illness, notices call to action to either stay cool or call 9–1–1. Self-explanatory, pretty clear graphic. Participant #5: ● ● ● First sees body graphic, likes the round softness of it, not overly serious. Understood symptoms and graphics from both sides. Looks advisory.

Ask permission to record.
