Evaluation techniques can be used at various stages of design to assess usability and functionality. Common techniques include cognitive walkthroughs, heuristic evaluation, and user testing in both laboratory and field settings. A variety of data collection methods exist such as think-aloud protocols, questionnaires, interviews, and physiological measures like eye tracking. The appropriate technique depends on factors like when in the design process evaluation occurs, desired objectivity, available resources, and whether the focus is on high-level or low-level information.

Introduction to UX Research: Fundamentals of Contextual Inquiry
Contextual inquiry is an important user research method that involves directly observing users in their natural environment to understand how they accomplish tasks. It helps identify user needs, constraints, and frustrations. The contextual inquiry process involves recruiting participants, planning a focus, observing users without interfering, analyzing patterns in the data, and iterating the findings with users. Conducting contextual inquiry at the beginning of a project establishes an essential feedback loop between users and developers to validate design decisions.

The what, when, why and how of usability
The document provides an overview of usability testing and techniques. It discusses what usability is, when to conduct testing, and how different techniques like expert reviews, user testing, eye tracking, card sorting and paper prototyping work. The author is a senior user experience consultant who provides these services to help evaluate designs and ensure they meet users' needs.
Evaluation techniques
Evaluation techniques are used at all stages of design to assess usability and functionality. Common techniques include cognitive walkthroughs, heuristic evaluations, and user studies. Cognitive walkthroughs involve experts analyzing how well a design supports task learning from a psychological perspective. Heuristic evaluations examine whether usability heuristics like predictability and consistency are violated. User studies observe real users in both laboratory and field settings to identify specific problems. The appropriate technique depends on the design stage, desired objectivity, and available resources.

More Than Usability
This document discusses 7 methods for conducting user research: field studies, desirability studies, surveys and polls, usability studies, remote testing, A/B testing, and researching without users. It provides an overview of when each method should be used, how to implement it, and tips/tools for each. The document emphasizes that user research is important because designers are not users, and it should be conducted at different stages of the product development process to inform, optimize, and assess the user experience.
Cultural Challenges In Global Agile
Agile development practice has gained popularity in the last few years. India has so far been riding on CMMI bandwagon, with companies vying with each other to get CMMI certification. Recently, we are seeing more and more projects being executed using agile methodologies. This has also brought with it, some challenges. Not all of them are unique to agile, but they tend to manifest earlier and has higher impact in agile.
While there are different types of challenges, here, we are focusing on the Indian cultural ones. Also, we are looking at the challenges in a joint product development – where work is done both by offshore team (which is typically the outsourced organization) and the onsite team (the client team).
After we elaborate on the challenges, we present how we have tried to solve them in our current client engagement.

Experimental studies on groups are more difficult than single-user experiments due to issues with subject groups, task choice, data gathering, and analysis. Subject groups require more subjects and time to complete tasks, resulting in greater variation. The task must encourage cooperation and potentially involve multiple channels. Data gathering requires synchronizing multiple video cameras and application logs, resulting in large volumes of data. Analysis may involve within-group experiments, micro-analysis of interactions, and qualitative analysis looking at group and media interactions, as controlled experiments may waste resources. Field studies provide more realistic evaluations by studying work in context. Observational evaluation methods include think aloud protocols, cooperative evaluation, protocol analysis, and automated analysis. Physiological methods like eye tracking and physiological measurements can

- 2. Norut and me • Norut –multidisciplinary research institute • ICT department – eHealth group • Background in ICT, lately focus on – Serious Games – Exergames – User centred design
- 3. Contents • User centred design • Elderly and games • Exergames • Our experience
- 4. Based on GameUp • Exergames for elderly • Kinect • A stable user group for 3 years
- 5. What - User Centred Design User-centred design (UCD) is a process in which the needs, wants, and limitations of end users of a product, service or process are given extensive attention at each stage of the design process (wikipedia) multi-stage problem solving process – analyse and foresee how users are likely to use a product – test the validity of the assumptions
- 6. Why user centred design? • See the product from the users’ perspective • Success depend on them – Wanting to use it – Use it correctly • Not easy to imagine the users’ reaction
- 7. When? The entire project: • Requirement • Design • Development • Evaluation
- 8. How? Mixed methods Some common methods • Literature • Focus groups • Usability testing • Questionnaires • Interviews • Participatory design • Field studies
- 9. Methods used Requirements: Commercial games Literature Observations Design: Observations Group discussions Semi-structured interviews Implementation: Iterative trials Observations Group discussions Semi-structured interviews Evaluations: Structured and semi-structured interviews questionnaires
- 10. Exergames Video games that are also a form of exercise. Need technology that tracks body movement or reaction.
- 11. Exergames and elderly • Elderly – Little information at the time – Time to think – Their own speed – Light and contrasts – Not noisy • Elderly still like a challenge and to have fun!
- 12. Elderly and games Sight Hearing Motor skills Cognivite abilities Not all commercial exergames are suited…
- 13. GameUp
- 14. Change examples • Background • Contrast sky/tree • Contrast apples/tree • Apple signs • Buckets lifted • Head on stick man • Moving cloud removed • More blue, less green
- 15. Details
- 16. Menu colours • Tested menu colours • Too much, got exhausted • Difficult to get real opinion
