Hi all,
For Assignment X I’ve created a multimedia presentation using a tool called Genially. Genially is a newer tool for me and it seemed fitting to use and play with a new tech tool used at my library while discussing how we can make purposeful decisions when choosing technology for our libraries. There is a voiceover but I’ve set it so you can move to the next slide at your own pace. I’ve also provided the script.
Great presentation! I am unaware of any library I have frequented in my life actually conduct usability testing, but intrigued to learn more about the topic!
Thank you for watching and commenting Jennifer! I know the systems team at my college library has done usability testing for things like a big update of our home page and when implementing our updated library search, and we’re about to do some for a new page we’re launching for students about how our department and the learning center can support academic skills. I got to do some mini mock usability testing of my library’s website when I took User Experience, and it was fascinating to see how much came from only testing three people with a few scenarios.
