1)
- She is listening to music while studying/doing homework.
- This person needs a way to keep focused and not be distracted by the surrounding environment.
- Intermittently gives encouraging phrases.
- Noise-cancelling.
2)
- People are listening to this music at a concert.
- These people need a way to listen to the concert and understand the words, and not be distracted by other people.
- Better audio equipment.
- Personal audio devices to listen to the concert.
3)
- Listening to music on a bus. It was playing very loudly.
- This person needs a way to be able to listen to their music without negatively affecting others.
- Noise-cancelling so that they don't have to play so loud.
- Better fit around ears so that there is less sound leaking.
- Have both in-ear and over-ear components to single headphone set
- "Public transit" setting (kind of like Airplane mode)
4)
- Sharing headphones on public transit.
- These people need a way to share their music easily and effectively.
- Ear buds that can be in either 2 or 4 pieces. 2 pieces for a single person, or each ear bud breaks into 2 pieces for a total of 4 sound playing pieces for 2 separate people.
- Wireless ear buds.
5)
- Working on a DJ set (admittedly not candid, but I thought it was an interesting situation).
- Need to be able to hear crowd/speakers, but also queued up songs coming out of headphones.
- Open-can headphones that are normally off so as to hear outside sounds, but then turns on when a button is pressed and closes the can to isolate sound coming from headphones.
- One-eared headphones (only one headphone for one ear, other ear is left open).

✓+ Nice job on your photos, user needs and Verplank diagrams!
For person #1, I like your creative idea about being distracted and providing encouraging phrases. For person #3, I like your observation about how loud earphones can intrude on other people. I also wonder if it's a need of the person listening to the music, or of the other people. I like your idea of airplane mode too.
Good job describing your headphone ideas. For the first metaphor, you did a great job thinking of a camera with its manual (or automatic) settings. Likewise for the second with the sun shades. Well done overall!
