Usability
Specs:
• Devise
a
method
for
testing
your
instructions,
such
as
read-‐and-‐locate
tests
or
timed
tests
on
the
assembly.
• A
usability
test
result
report
will
be
part
of
the
final
project.
You
must
anticipate
what
potential
problems
will
be
before
the
product
is
tested
and
list
them
in
your
report.
• The
final
project
will
include
not
only
your
anticipated
problems,
but
empirical
data
from
a
real
usability
test
which
lists
modifications
made
to
the
instructions
to
address
these
issues.
• Be
sure
to
include
data
on
the
amount
of
time
spent
reading
the
instructions
versus
assembly
time.
Do
users
use
your
instructions?
Do
they
have
to
refer
to
them
constantly
during
the
process,
or
do
they
simply
read
and
then
execute
them?
• Make
sure
that
the
instructions
allow
for
error.
How
can
a
user
troubleshoot
the
results
if
their
results
do
not
match
the
instructions?
Instructions
Content
Requirements
Your
instructions
set
should
contain
the
following
elements,
which
may
vary
according
to
the
media
you
choose
to
use.
If
need
be,
you
and
I
will
work
together
to
adjust
our
shared
terminology
and
expectations
accordingly.
(Do
not
choose
to
eliminate
an
aspect
without
consulting
with
me,
because
it
is
important
that
we
both
be
on
the
same
page.)
Home

This

focus

A

Narrative

This
memo
summarizes
the
design
objectives
and
process
involved
in
creating
your
instructions.
A
Usability
Report
This
document
provides
the
description
and
results
of
your
usability
testing.
Discuss
the
“focus
group”
negotiation
of
particular
features
of
the
instructions
before
they
were
designed.
How
well
did
your
intuition
match
up
with
the
results
of
your
first
usability
test?
Provide
your
data,
and
a
summary
of
that
data.
What
changes
did
you
make
as
a
result
of
the
first
test?
How
did
the
second
test
go?
Did
it
solve
the
problems
you
tried
to
address?
You
will
also
provide
the
raw
data
you
gathered
during
the
usability
test
process.
If
you
have
questions,
don’t
hesitate
to
ask.
