What is a Round?
The organizational structure on Lookback's platform is:
Lookback organization ➡️ Project ➡️ Round ➡️ Session
So a Round is the iterative, organizational layer. All sessions with participants generated from the same participant link will be listed in the Round associated with that link. Let's say you're doing a project where you test three different scenarios within a project, you would typically create three rounds=three different participant links. Perhaps you want to separate certain participant based on demographics or something else, just create additional rounds according to your needs. The conditions/messaging/instructions of a test is set in Rounds settings.
Each Round has its own Participant link and Observer link?
Participant links and Observer links are associated with each Round.
Unmoderated Rounds ('SelfTest Round' and 'Task for Desktop') will have:
- A Participant linkModerated Rounds ('LiveShare Rounds' and 'Interview') will have:
- A remote Participant link
- An In-person Participant link (and QR Code)
- An Observer linkA unique interview room is created for each participant clicking on a Participant link, so you never have to worry about one participant interfering with a different session. In other words, the same participant link creates multiple, separate sessions in a 'Round' with the same link.
