1.Introduction

This is an individual piece of work. You are not allowed to work with anyone else during the completion of this assignment. You must submit your work on Blackboard on or before the due date/time.

The objective of this assignment is to demonstrate in practice the application of interface evaluation methods, to critically assess the usability of a user interface of your choice. Usability evaluations usually involve one or more experts who will go through the user interface and evaluate its usability using a set of HCI rules and evaluation frameworks. It can also involve end users’ participation to elicit potential usability issues.

In this assignment, you, as an individual expert, will conduct the evaluation using evaluation frameworks you have learned in this course: These methods include:

-Expert evaluations: Neilsen’s Heuristics, Schneiderman’s Golden Rules, Norman’s 7 Design Principles

-User-based evaluations: Think-aloud, time-on-task, SUS, etc.

2.Details of the Task

1.Choose an interface (a website, or a mobile application or a game or a AR/VR application). Some examples include: Microsoft Word, Gmail (web or mobile version), Blackboard, Zoom, Microsoft Teams, UQ website, Commonwealth Bank, ANZ Bank, An Australian govt website or mobile app, YouTube, Amazon, Facebook, Instagram, Bing, Netflix, TikTok, Snapchat, Telegram, WhatsApp, WeChat, Qantas, Alibaba, a mobile game of your choice, a VR/AR game or app, etc.

2.You must select ONE Expert Evaluation method and at least ONE User-based evaluation method (you can choose up to two, if you wish).

a.For the expert evaluation, for each heuristics/rule/principle, you will identify one example, which is either a compliance or a violation, or both. One instance cannot be used for two (or more) compliances or two (or more) violations, but an instance can be found both in a compliance and in a violation. In addition:

i.Overall, you need to find at least 1 violation of a heuristic/rule/principle and provide a severity rate between 1 and 3. If you find more violations, try to choose the ones with a higher severity rate.

ii.Provide 1 recommendation per violation that will address the problem and significantly improve the usability of the product.

b.For the User-based evaluation, describe the protocol, results, and conclusions. You will need to get at least 3 users involved in your test.

2.1Report Guidelines

The main body of your report should not exceed 20 pages (excluding title page, references, and appendix). The report should be suitably formatted, structured logically and be free from grammar and spelling errors. To prepare your report, you are advised to use a word processor (such as Microsoft Word or OpenOffice/LibreOffice) that supports spelling and grammar checking. Your report must contain the following:

1.Title Page

2.Table of Contents (this means you must use page numbers)

3.Introduction – a short introduction that describes the interface you have chosen and discusses why and how an expert evaluation, and a user-based evaluation will help identify potential usability issues.

4.Summary table of compliance with heuristic/rules/principles – You will provide a summary table for compliance instances, the heuristic rule/principle, and the evidence, as shown below. Each table in your report should have a caption at the top.

#Instance of Compliance

Heuristic/ Rule/principle Evidence

1Here you need to provide a very brief description of the instance (a phrase, not a sentence)

The heuristic/rule/principle e.g., #3 of Nielsen, or #1 of Golden Rules, or a Design Principle from Norman Here you need to provide the figure number and its caption. You could include more than

one figure details

5.Summary table of violations and recommendations – You will provide a summary of heuristic/rule/principle violation instances, the heuristic/rule/principle, the evidence, the severity ratings, and recommendations to address the problem, in a table as shown below.

#Instance of Violation Heuristic Rule/principle

EvidenceSeverity RatingRecommendation

1Here you need to provide a very brief description of the instance (a phrase, not a sentence)

The heuristic/rule/principle e.g., #3 of Nielsen, or #1 of Golden Rules, or a Design Principle from NormanHere you need to provide the figure number and its caption. You could include more than one figure details.

A severity rating e.g., 2Here you provide a very brief description of the recommendation (a phrase, not a sentence)

6.Description of Instances of Compliance – In this section, you will provide a detailed description of each instance of compliance in paragraphs (not bullet points).

a.You need to justify each instance, and your arguments must demonstrate your critical thinking and deep understanding of the heuristic/rule/principle that has been followed.

b.You must include screenshots (at least one per each instance) to illustrate your points and use arrows or shapes to highlight your points on the picture.

c.Each screenshot should have a figure number and a figure caption.

d.In your descriptions, you should mention the figure number for the screenshot(s).

7.Description of Violations – In this section, you will provide a detailed description of each problem and its recommendation in paragraphs (not bullet points).

a.You need to justify each instance, and your arguments must demonstrate your critical thinking and deep understanding of the heuristic that has been violated.

b.You need to justify very briefly the severity rating you have chosen based on the factors of frequency, impact of the problem and its persistence*1.

c.You must include screenshots (at least one per each instance) to illustrate your points and use arrows or shapes to highlight your points on the picture.

d.Each screenshot should have a figure number and a figure caption.

e.In your descriptions, you should mention the figure number for the screenshot(s).

f.You need to provide a short description of your recommendation/s that addresses each problem. You should provide solid arguments to justify this recommendation.

8.User-based evaluation– In this section, you will provide a detailed description of the User-based evaluation(s) you will have conducted. You need to:

a.Explain what the user task(s) were. You may choose one user task or more.

b.Why the method(s) you chose fits the task you are evaluating.

c.Provide a brief description of the testing protocol.

d.Report the results of the test and,

e.Provide a brief analysis of the result (e.g., mean completion time)

9.Conclusion – A brief summary of the interface you critically evaluated, a description of the key aspects of the two evaluations, and any significant or interesting findings with regards to the violations and compliances and user-based evaluation results.

2.2Presentation Guidelines

During teaching week 10, within your allocated studio, you will have to present your work in-class to your tutor. You will be allocated 5 minutes each.

Hurdle: students must achieve at least a Pass for this portion of the task to be eligible to pass the entire assessment. As an identity verified assessment, all students must be available for this part of the assessment item and must have their student card available for verification. All presentations must be given live.

3.What You Should Hand In

You should submit a single electronic file on Blackboard on or before the due date/time.

Your submission must be a single word-processed document that contains your interface inquiry report (Microsoft Word (.doc/.docx) or Pages (.pages) formats only. Note – PDF is acceptable but is not the preferred format.

No other forms of submission are allowed without prior written permission from the course coordinator.
