Agenda
How Do We WorkGo With the Flow
Task Flow Analysis
• Evaluate the flow of information from one computer screen to the other • What is required for the user to achieve their goal
Method of Analysis - Task Decomposition
1. What is the task2. Breakdown the tasks to subtasks3. Diagram a task/subtask4. To what granular level should each
subtask be5. Perform steps 1-3 for each task6. Validate with someone who has
knowledge in the domain, perform a Cognitive Walkthrough
Welcome to our

How Do We WorkWalking Through the Actions
Cognitive Walkthroughs
• Take into consideration the users’ thought process• Analyze each of the tasks/subtasks that are taken to achieve the goal to find usability pitfalls• How does the system/UI respond to those actions• What are the actions that the user will take• Expected behavior of the user and the system/UI
Ask Yourself the Following Questions
1. Will the users try to achieve the right effect?2. Will the user recognize to take the correct action that is available?3. Will the user associate the correct action with the effect to be achieved?4. Will the user see that progress is being made toward the final goal?
How Do We Work
Jacob Nielsen’s “Heuristic Evaluation”
1. Visibility of system status2. Match between system and the real world3. User control and freedom4. Consistency and standards5. Error prevention6. Recognition rather than recall7. Flexibility and efficiency of use8. Aesthetic and minimalist design9. Help users recognize, diagnose, and
recover from errors10. Help and documentation
General Principles of a User Interface Design
How Do We WorkYour Input Matters
Formative Tests
• Highlights usability gaps and problems• Qualitative results• “Think aloud” method• Video recordings with Morae• User becomes part of the development process
Usability Testing
• Consists of a moderator, 2-3 note takers, and a test participant• Scenarios that create a realistic situation • Tasks that a user needs to accomplish• Can use low-fi or high-fi prototype• Test Script, Background Questionnaire, Post Test Survey, NDAs
