71 Receive a gift card for your time... Testing

72 Participant Profile At which school are you enrolled as a student? 9 How many online courses have you taken in Laulima? Do you access course material with a mobile device?

73 Participant Tech Profile 5 How would you rate your tech level? How would you rate your ability to use Laulima? How would you rate your ability to use Google apps

74 Can you tell me what you re thinking? I wonder what this does...

75 user perception efficiency ease of use Protocol

76 Thanks SO MUCH for your time! That was interesting...

77 1 Round 1 Usability Errors user perception overall design Serious Error excessive text homepage language/concepts Serious Error included Google services unclear simplified/intuitive Serious Error included Laulima services excessive efficiency task completion Critical Error id and nav to G+ page error ease of use Critical Error native nav within lessons confusing navigation accessing resources/ multimedia content Serious Error resources not ideally located Minor Error experienced by 1 user per round Serious Error experienced by 2 users per round Critical Error experienced by all users per round

78 Prototype Revision 1 Too many! Too much!? Google Services

79 2 Round 2 Usability Errors user perception overall design language/concepts Minor Error included Google services not clear simplified/intuitive Minor Error experienced by 1 user per round efficiency task completion Critical Error id and nav to G+ page error ease of use navigation accessing resources/ multimedia content Critical Error native nav within lessons confusing Minor Error resources not ideally located Serious Error experienced by 2 users per round Critical Error experienced by all users per round

81 3 Round 3 Usability Errors user perception overall design Minor Error language/concepts homepage video display overlapping issues on ipad simplified/intuitive Minor Error experienced by 1 user per round efficiency task completion Critical Error nav only to G+ page error ease of use navigation accessing resources/ multimedia content Serious Error native nav within lessons confusing Minor Error excluded cultural based resources Serious Error experienced by 2 users per round Critical Error experienced by all users per round

82 The accessibility was awesome! The design was very easy [to] follow and was consistent in various tabs [this] is very helpful when working in an online course. It's just right there and you just click it. Straightforward and clear. Easy to use. Easier than Laulima itself. In the future perhaps other web servers could utilize this [design] and help students use a more functional approach to not only Laulima but also the UH system. Not going to take a rocket scientist to figure it out.

83 Post Survey Average User Ratings Round 1 Round 2 Round 3 user perception The home page is clear and serves as an orientation to the course efficiency It was easy to complete the tasks given during the study ease of use The course site is easy to use. 4.5 User perception Efficiency Ease of use!
