On Monday, November 7, 2016, Smart Chicago Collaborative held the first CUTGroup Collective Community call. The goal of the CUTGroup Collective is to convene organizations and institutions in cities to help others establish new CUTGroups, create a new community, and share and learn from one another. For our first community call, we want to highlight CUTGroup Detroit’s story. Over the last few months, a collaboration across multiple entities invested in Detroit– the City of Detroit, Data Driven Detroit, and Microsoft– recruited for and conducted their first CUTGroup test. On our first call, the team involved will talk about their successes and challenges in building CUTGroup Detroit.
Slides were created by the CUTGroup Detroit team, which includes the City of Detroit, Data Driven Detroit, and Microsoft.
Creating a Seamless Mobile Consumer Experience - Case StudyAnswerLab
Case study: Exploratory research to understand and improve mobile user experience for bank customers
Wells Fargo partnered with AnswerLab to understand bank customer experience across mobile platforms in order to build the right mobile experiences and create a long-term multichannel experience strategy instead of making product-by-product upgrades.
This case study addresses three key research objectives:
- Understanding mobile usage/behaviors
- Identifying unmet customer needs
- Discovering opportunities to improve existing mobile banking offerings
Speaker: Rachel Philippson, Mott MacDonald
Presentation at the Eldis 20th Anniversary event "Learning from 20 years of digital knowledge sharing for global development" held at IDS on Thursday 15 September 2016 and Friday 16 September 2016.

How smartphones impact on
tourism domain?
• Tourism information search
• Travel planning
• Travel decision-making (buying & reservations)
• Post-consumption behavior
6. ENTER 2015 Research Track Slide Number 6
So………
• While smartphone users gain more
experiences with mobile search
• It is interested in knowing:
– How smartphones shape users’ TIS
behavior?
7. ENTER 2015 Research Track Slide Number 7
What is tourism information
search (TIS) process?
• TIS activities involve planning, decision-
making, and anticipation of the trip with
other people.
• TIS process contains a set of complex
interactions with people and technology.
• TIS process model is to describe the
phenomena.
8. ENTER 2015 Research Track Slide Number 8
What can we do if knowing the
TIS process?
• To gain a better understanding of the search
characteristics and related patterns.
• To contribute to the propositions/hypotheses
and model development.
• To improve the interface and functionality of
the search device and associated software.
9. ENTER 2015 Research Track Slide Number 9
Before era of mobile technology,
is there any TIS process model?
• Yes!
• A few models related to online information
search, e.g., Pan & Fesenmaier (2006).
• But, a model from a user-centered
perspective has been proposed........

Web users’ TIS process model
(Ho, Lin & Chen, 2012)
11. ENTER 2015 Research Track Slide Number 11
Highlights of Ho’s model
• It presents the temporal order in a search
process with:
– 4 stages from online to offline
– 8 common elements
• TIS behavior captures the other
information activities (process, utilize &
disseminate information).
12. ENTER 2015 Research Track Slide Number 12
Why do we need another model
for smartphone users?
• A different information environment:
– Search device
– Mobile technology
– Web 2.0
13. ENTER 2015 Research Track Slide Number 13
Other questions
• Do smartphone users need other tourism
information sources?
• How do they use these information sources
with mobile search?

The properties of the search
characteristics (1/5)
• Mobile Search: 7 mobile search strategies have been
identified to be most commonly used, namely,
– using search engines,
– using keywords,
– using bookmarks,
– browsing web pages,
– comparing search results,
– using e-WOMs,
– other approaches (e.g., App).
18. ENTER 2015 Research Track Slide Number 18
The properties of the search
characteristics (2/5)
• Preliminary Collaborative TIS:
– The collaborative activities in the tourism context
could be done at the same time or not
(synchronously or asynchronously).
– The most common activities were to gather,
obtain, share, update and verify information.
– The collaborators might be the travel
companions, acquaintances or strangers.
– They were co-presence or remote.
19. ENTER 2015 Research Track Slide Number 19
The properties of the search
characteristics (3/5)
• Barriers to mobile search: The disturbances
could be classified as
– Website content (failed to connect and
link to the websites),
– Mobile Internet connection,
– Mobile appliance (the small screen size
and limited battery usage).
20. ENTER 2015 Research Track Slide Number 20
The properties of the search
characteristics (4/5)
• PC Internet search:
• Smartphone users may further utilize the PC
Internet for advanced searches.
• They revisited the pages/search history for
double-checking or making relevant
judgments.
• The PCs were used for compiling, editing,
classifying or printing out the information.
21. ENTER 2015 Research Track Slide Number 21
The properties of the search
characteristics (5/5)
• Advanced Collaborative TIS: This refers to
further communications and discussions with
travel companions by evaluating and filtering
the information.
• The activities also include seeking personal
recommendations from acquaintances.
• The information sources have been expanded
to travel agencies or other service providers.
22. ENTER 2015 Research Track Slide Number 22
Highlights of the comprehensive
model
• Some elements were identical to those by the PC
Internet; but for the others, their nature changed.
• The smartphone provided the mechanism to support
the collaborative TIS.
• Most smartphone users utilized multiple information
channels.
• Overall, the model was more complicated than used
to be, with a variety of patterns.

Highlights of the sub-models
• The discrepancies of the sub-models lie in
whether information seekers have certain of
features or not (e.g., collaborative search).
• The search patterns imply:
– A dependency on mobile search toward Internet
sources
– A reduction of the usage of editorial information &
PC Internet

Limitations & future studies
• A small scale of the study
• To generalize the theory and to test the
model with a wider population
• The search process model may be modified
by different searchers, travel products &
situational factors.
• To conduct a panel study using the
longitudinal approach
