Study Protocol

Heuristic Evaluation This evaluation was performed internally by Steelbeam Software team members. The system was evaluated with the following 10 heuristics outlined by Jakob Nielson (useit.com): 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10.

DOT Score Panel

Visibility of system status Match between system and the real world User control and freedom Consistency and standards Error prevention Recognition rather than recall Flexibility and efficiency of use Aesthetic and minimalist design Help users recognize, diagnose, and recover from errors Help and documentation

We used the following 0 to 4 scale (useit.com, Nielson) to rate the severity of usability problems: 0 = I don't agree that this is a usability problem at all 1 = Cosmetic problem only: need not be fixed unless extra time is available on project 2 = Minor usability problem: fixing this should be given low priority 3 = Major usability problem: important to fix, so should be given high priority 4 = Usability catastrophe: imperative to fix this before product can be released

-3Cognitive Walkthrough The cognitive walkthrough was also performed internally by Steelbeam Software. We came up with the following series of tasks that would be performed by our user: Step 1" User examines the overall DOT score and the scores associated with each BASIC. User clicks on “More Information” to get more info specific to the carrier. Step 2" User displays the User Reviews tab and can view the FullTank gauge. Step 3" User views all of the reviews. Step 4" User finds several reviews particularly helpful and decides to “like” them Step 5" User wants to write a review of her own about a past experience with the company and submits her review. User Reviews Panel

We then asked the following 4 questions: • • • •

Will the user try to achieve the right effect? Will the user notice that the correct action is available? Will the user associate the correct action with the effect that user is trying to achieve? If the correct action is performed, will the user see that progress is being made towards their goal?

-4Think-aloud Evaluation " For this testing technique, we wanted a variety of participants to test our system, so we provided an incentive by offering a free chicken sandwich upon completion of the test. Potential participants were approached at random. The following steps outline the procedure by which they tested the system: Step 1: Participant fills out consent form (Appendix A1). Tester asks for permission to capture video and audio. Step 2: Tester explains the general use of the system and informs participant of the steps that will be completed during the test. Step 3: Participant completes 9 general demographics questions (Appendix C). Step 4: Participant begins test under the direction of the tester. Step 5: Participant verbalizes thought process while completing a series of tasks, as outlined on Task Worksheet (Appendix B). Step 6: After completing the series of tasks, the Participant completes a reflective questionnaire (Appendix C). Step 7: Tester thanks participant for their time and rewards them with a chicken sandwich.

Retrospective Testing Interview " For this testing technique, potential participants were again chosen at random and offered a chicken sandwich as an incentive to complete the testing. The following steps outline the procedure by which they tested the system: Step 1: Participant fills out consent form (Appendix A2). Tester asks for permission to capture video and audio. Step 2: Tester explains the general use of the system and informs participant of the steps that will be completed during the test. Step 3: Participant completes 9 general demographics questions (Appendix C). Step 4: Participant begins test under the direction of the tester. Step 5: Participant completes a series of tasks, as outlined on Task Worksheet (Appendix B). Step 6: After completing the series of tasks, the Participant completes a reflective questionnaire(Appendix C). Step 7: Participants discusses his/her experience using the system. with the Tester. Step 7: Tester thanks participant for their time and rewards them with a chicken sandwich. S t e e l b e a m

-5Demographics

Our evaluations and surveys took place in the Miller Learning Center on the campus of the University of Georgia. As a result, our demographics were somewhat limited in terms of the variety of users we could attract at such a location. However, as stated in previous design iterations, our system was primarily designed to attract the target demographic of younger users (18 – 35) who have regular access to the internet. We conducted evaluations with ten individuals, seven male and three female, who were all between the ages of 18 to 29. Most of the participants were full-time students, with two part-time students and two individuals in the work force. The income range of those involved in the study predominately fell into the less than $20,000 array with only one individual reporting an income over $20,000. The average internet use in terms of hours spent online per week by the users polled was 22.7 and is illustrated in the graph below.

-6The frequency of motorcoach travel for our randomly selected group saw half the participants never having traveled by motorcoach, with the remaining five averaging between 1 to 5 rides in the past year. The preferred booking method of motorcoach travel, which for those never having toured was a hypothetical estimation, predominately returned the response of: “via the Internet,” with “phone” and “friend/family” also receiving votes (see graph below).

The next inquiry relates to the previous question by asking which device would be or is preferred when booking a motorcoach online. This response returned in favor of the computer/tablet, with only one vote going indicating that the participant does not travel. We certainly realize that some of the correlations made after conducting this study are not necessarily statistically valid due to population size--only ten individuals were interviewed--however, due to the time constraints placed upon us as part-time researchers in a classroom setting, these limitations had to be made in the interest of overall completion. It is also worth noting that while only ten participants were used, many of the questions asked received similar responses from up to nine out of ten instances, which cannot be ignored in terms of validity.

-9Cognitive Walkthrough We evaluated each of the 5 steps using the 4 questions outlined in the Study Protocol section of this document. Our results were as follows: Step 1" User examines the overall DOT score and the scores associated with each BASIC. User clicks on “More Information” to get more info specific to the carrier. The user should be able to complete this task, however, there may be some confusion about what each of the BASICS categories mean. Step 2" User displays the User Reviews tab and can view the FullTank gauge. This step might be difficult to complete--the User Review tab is somewhat hard to find/understand that it opens a different window. Also, while the FullTank gauge presents the user review information in a sleek, visual format, it may not be entirely intuitive and may need more explanation that is currently lacking. Step 3" User views all of the reviews. This step is easy, as long as the user is able to successfully complete the previous step, which takes the user to the User Reviews panel of the widget. However, there may be some confusion, as the “See all Reviews” button opens another window in the userʼs browser, rather than in the widget itself. Step 4" User finds several reviews particularly helpful and decides to give them “thumbs up” This step follows the format of other review sites in allowing a user to give a review he/she finds helpful a “thumbs up.” The user may be provided with too much feedback, however. Each time a user gives a review a “thumbs up,” he/she is directed to a confirmation page that is more of an annoyance than a help. Step 5" User wants to write a review of her own about a past experience with the company and submits her review. This task may be difficult to perform because the only way to navigate to the page where one can leave a review is through the Widget interface. There should be a button that allows the user to leave a review from the “See all Reviews” site. S t e e l b e a m

Ease of Tasks graph (above) shows the average reported ease level of completing the first 7 tasks (see Appendix A).

Discussion of Results Generally, we are pleased with our prototype based on the results of evaluation. User feedback was generally positive, and our cognitive walkthrough showed that, for many tasks, users始 needs are satisfied. However, there are some flaws with the design. Our heuristic evaluation revealed some usability issues, and the feedback received raised some problems as well. The results of all of these evaluations are discussed below. S t e e l b e a m

-13Our heuristic evaluations revealed some errors and omissions fairly quickly. Some of the most glaring errors have to do with errors: when users leave a blank review, they receive an error screen that is intimidating and does not provide any remedies or “ways out.” Though that was the worst problem, we noticed several more errors that were still fairly severe. One error that we noticed, and that was later confirmed by user testing, was that users are not able to leave a review from the review overview page. Another error with reviews is that users do not have the ability to edit or delete a review. One thing that we noticed that didnʼt come up in user testing was that users can leave multiple reviews and like a review multiple times. This could easily result in abuse. Finally, there are some varieties in terminology that could be confusing. For example, we use the terms “helpful” and “like” to describe what a user believes is a good review, and we use “score” in one context but “overall score” in another to mean the same thing. The results we received from our questionnaires revealed some problems that didnʼt come up during the cognitive walkthrough or heuristic evaluation. The most common complaint from users was that our visual design was not very appealing. During our evaluations, we were looking for functionality errors, so the feedback we received about visual aspects of the program was very helpful. One of the other most common complaints was something that we did notice prior to user testing: navigation. Users had difficulty finding some pages, and a few complained that there were too many screens. We found that, of the different screens, users liked the DOT score window the most. They found this screen to provide a lot of clear, accessible information in a small space. The biggest criticism of this window was that it was difficult to interpret the scores into meaningful information. The component users liked the least varied, but in general had to do with the review screens. They said that, in addition to the navigation issues, they also didnʼt like the format of the reviews page. Reviews were too cluttered and it was hard to find the relevant data. When we asked about how difficult users found each task, the data we received confirmed some of the above criticism. For example, when we asked users to tell us the overall user rating, which required them to navigate to a new screen, they found that task to be more difficult than other tasks. We performed 3 retrospective interviews, which for the most part confirmed the results of our questionnaire. With DOT scores, the participants appreciated the bold, large font that was used for the overall score and found the BASIC scores (in a smaller font) helpful and easy to understand as well. One participant did note that it may be helpful to display how many points the score is out of (nowhere on the system did it say “out of 10”, although it was assumed by the participants).

-14When participants selected the “More Information” button, participants generally disliked the DOT website that they were taken to; the DOT rating on our system was the preferred method when looking up government data. However, when asked whether they preferred DOT scores or user reviews, all participants stated that they would prefer reading user reviews. Each participantʼs experience with the FullTank design for user reviews were favorable, however it was noted by one individual that the phrasing of “rating” and “review” was not consistent and made it difficult to understand what the evaluation was asking them to look up. When navigating to the “See all reviews” page, user reviews were considered effective and simple to understand; however each participant noted that the designʼs appearance was very plain with its white/black colors and overall bland look, a view that closely matched the results of the questionnaire. Participants had no issue leaving their own review either, though the plainness of the aesthetic design was brought up again. As a whole, participants found the system effective in displaying the information, and a majority of the downsides came in the form of how the system actually looked, not from problems in functionality. Based on all of these tests, if we were to redesign our prototype with this data, there are several improvements that could be made. One of the biggest things that we would try to do is iron out some of the navigation issues. For some criticisms, this could be as simple as adding a button. However, some criticisms, such as the complaint that we had too many screens, might require extensive brainstorming to resolve. Another improvement would be to the visual design of the system. If this application were being developed professionally, we might consider hiring a graphic designer to help with the aesthetic appeal. Even without a design, we could add more colors to our review page to help convey the information more effectively, and perhaps use a font scheme that users find to be more modern (one of the criticisms we received was that the font looked dated). One improvement that would be simple to make is to unify our terminology. In addition the differences in terms we noticed during the heuristic evaluation, users had trouble distinguishing the terms “user ratings” and “user reviews”, something we did not pick up on during our non-user evaluations. Finally, if we had more time, we might make some general refinements to the review system. We would take a look at how we can make the layout more effective, and we would eliminate the possible for abuse by leaving multiple reviews or liking a review more than once. At its core, though, we still believe our idea provides a unique, effective solution for getting more information about motorcoach safety to users.
