| Summary: | Involving potential users in application interfaces design allows us to identify key issues that can be addressed in the interfaces design. This work tends to evaluate Tabletop application interfaces. It aims to figure out how involving users can enhance and optimize collaboration applications interface design. In this work, the test methodology was explained by undertaken pilot study, followed with user testing.
The objectives of this report are to choose tabletop application interfaces that could support collaborative work, to conduct user testing on the interfaces chosen, and finally to propose design recommendations based on the these findings.
Expected findings will be collected using users’ testing methods which include preparing test plan, creating users’ tasks, recruiting users which they are required to complete several list of tasks having them interact with selected applications and record their interaction, analyze test findings. A list of recommendations will be drafted and the more usable smart device will be established.
The overall process was timed in order to measure the task completion speed and effectiveness of the task list completion obtained by the participants. The sample size is thirty participants where each user test may take up to fifteen minutes. All feedback given by the users will be recorded and analyzed to achieve the research objectives. Initial findings indicate that evaluating tabletop application interfaces is a complex process which requires deep analysis of the users’ behaviors toward these applications.
There will be no software development at the end of this project thus; this project will be heavy investment into the process of testing and analyzing the findings. There will also be a quantitative set of guidelines to improved interfaces design. The test will be user-centered, giving the user more influence in the outcome of the research. |
