Before the workshop:
- Review the Usability Evaluation Basics page from usability.gov for a brief description of common types of usability testing methods.
- The Yale University Usability & Web Accessibility site is a great resource for developing user-friendly and accessible web sites. For today’s purposes, just review the section on Usability Best Practices.
- Finally, choose 2-3 myths from the website UXMyths to explore.
- Consider how you connected with the “myths” – either as a designer of a site (did any of these make you re-think a design choice, or confirm what you are already implementing?) or as a web user (did you immediately think of an experience or site where the myth rang true?).
