Plan your usability evaluation
In lecture, you have been introduced to three different usability evaluation techniques: heuristic evaluation, cognitive walkthrough and think aloud protocol analysis. You are asked in this milestone to select one of these evaluation techniques and justify why you feel it would be appropriate to evaluate the prototype from the other team. You then need to make sure that you have prepared all of the required inputs to conduct the usability evaluation. This section should clearly indicate which method you chose, why you chose it and what you hope to learn from it. You should also detail any preparations (ratings scales, criteria) that developed for the evaluation.
IMPORTANT If you do a think aloud DO NOT put any identifiable information as to the test subjects in the report. You may include general demographic information, "Subject X was a 32 year old male with experience in using mobile applications", NOT "Sally Smith my roommate".
