Add a new section GR6 User Testing to your group's wiki page, with the following subsections:

  • DesignDescribe the final design of your interface. Illustrate with screenshots. Point out important design decisions and discuss the design alternatives that you considered. Particularly, discuss design decisions that were motivated by the three evaluations you did (paper prototyping, heuristic evaluation, and user testing).
  • ImplementationDescribe the internals of your implementation, but keep the discussion on a high level. Discuss important design decisions you made in the implementation. Also discuss how implementation problems may have affected the usability of your interface.
  • EvaluationDescribe how you conducted your user test. Describe how you found your users and how representative they are of your target user population (but don't identify your users by name). Describe how the users were briefed and what tasks they performed; if you did a demo for them as part of your briefing, justify that decision. List the usability problems you found, and discuss how you might solve them.
  • ReflectionDiscuss what you learned over the course of the iterative design process. If you did it again, what would you do differently? Focus in this part not on the specific design decisions of your project (which you already discussed in the Design section), but instead on the meta-level decisions about your design process: your risk assessments, your decisions about what features to prototype and which prototype techniques to use, and how you evaluated the results of your observations.

Design

This screen represents the landmark selection screen that allows users to choose the landmarks they would like to have included in their tour.  There are several features on this screen that evolved throughout the testing and implementation phases.  First, the names of the tabs changed several times.  We believe the final naming scheme represents to the user what each of the tabs is meant for; select landmarks in the first tab, view/edit them in the second.  Next, the text at the bottom was altered to ensure that users know the purpose of selecting landmarks on the map while also providing them feedback on the expected results they would find if they continued.  Third, a small popup indicating the name of the landmark selected was added so users would know what they have chosen.
