Webinar: How to Conduct Unmoderated Remote Usability TestingUserZoom
The webinar covered how to conduct unmoderated remote usability testing in 3 parts: an introduction and case study, how to plan, design, recruit for, and analyze a remote unmoderated usability study. It discussed choosing goals and metrics, creating study scripts with tasks and questions, recruiting participants, and analyzing results including task success rates, efficiency metrics, satisfaction scores, and behavioral data. The presentation provided examples and tips for each part of the process.
The document provides an overview of usability testing. It discusses what usability testing is, why it is important, how to plan and conduct tests, and how to analyze the results. The key points are:
- Usability testing evaluates a product by observing representative users complete typical tasks. It identifies usability problems and collects data on user performance and satisfaction.
- Important steps include planning tests, recruiting appropriate users, preparing materials, conducting tests, and analyzing findings to improve the product design.
- Tests should involve thinking aloud and be focused on meaningful, realistic tasks. Data is collected on success, time, errors and user feedback to identify issues and enhance the user experience.
Usability testing is important to ensure websites are easy to use. It identifies functionality issues and shows how users navigate a site. There are different types of usability tests conducted at various stages of development. Exploratory tests examine early design concepts, assessment tests evaluate tasks and problems, and validation tests confirm issues are fixed. Usability principles include using simple navigation and language, providing help, and designing for user needs. Testing benefits include a real user perspective and seeing decision processes.
Serve your customers better with User Experience ResearchAmanda Stockwell
This document discusses user experience (UX) research and marketing research. It defines UX research as understanding users and the context in which they use products in order to uncover opportunities and understand why things happen from the user's perspective. Marketing research is defined as understanding purchasers and the context of purchase in order to uncover market opportunities and understand what is happening from the company's perspective. The document then outlines different types of research methods that can be used for UX and marketing research like interviews, usability testing, surveys, and analytics reviews. It provides guidance on choosing methods based on the product stage and type of questions being asked.
Denver Startup Week 2019: Choosing a Direction Learning How to Test Ideas and...BrittanyRubinstein
As part of Denver's 2019 Startup Week, Crownpeak's Director of UX, Ari Weissman and Lys Maitland, Experience Research Manager at a national healthcare organization, presented a joint session on "Choosing a direction: Learning how to test ideas and designs."
The document discusses how test axioms can be used to advance testing practices. It introduces 16 proposed test axioms grouped into stakeholder, design, and delivery axioms. The axioms represent critical thinking processes for testing any system. The document discusses how the axioms can help testers design test strategies, assess improvement opportunities, and define needed skills. It also proposes a "first equation of testing" that separates axioms, context, values, and thinking to allow for different valid approaches. Additionally, the concept of "quantum testing" is introduced to discuss assigning significance to tests rather than defining their value, which can only be determined by stakeholders.
It is possible for a product to pass quality assurance tests and acceptance testing without being user-friendly. It is also too easy for those of us who build digital products to make assumptions about what our users need. As a design thinker, I strive to bring the authentic voices of complex audiences into the product lifecycle through pragmatic research.
A sound design research process not only shapes digital products to be more usable, it also adds value to drive engagement.
The goal of this presentation is to give attendees a deeper understanding of usability testing so they can leverage it in their own work. The material will shed light on what is important to the research buyer and will help the research provider to better understand how to plan, moderate, and report on a usability study. It will also provide information on where they can go to learn more about this very practical qualitative method.
Kay will cover what a usability test is and when to use it, the key planning steps, the language around it, and the unique insights this method produces. She will also discuss the various approaches a market researcher can take when running a usability study at different points in a product’s development (e.g., concept, early prototype, released product).

Suzanne Lagerweij - Influence Without Power - Why Empathy is Your Best Friend...Suzanne Lagerweij
This is a workshop about communication and collaboration. We will experience how we can analyze the reasons for resistance to change (exercise 1) and practice how to improve our conversation style and be more in control and effective in the way we communicate (exercise 2).
This session will use Dave Gray’s Empathy Mapping, Argyris’ Ladder of Inference and The Four Rs from Agile Conversations (Squirrel and Fredrick).
Abstract:
Let’s talk about powerful conversations! We all know how to lead a constructive conversation, right? Then why is it so difficult to have those conversations with people at work, especially those in powerful positions that show resistance to change?
Learning to control and direct conversations takes understanding and practice.
We can combine our innate empathy with our analytical skills to gain a deeper understanding of complex situations at work. Join this session to learn how to prepare for difficult conversations and how to improve our agile conversations in order to be more influential without power. We will use Dave Gray’s Empathy Mapping, Argyris’ Ladder of Inference and The Four Rs from Agile Conversations (Squirrel and Fredrick).
In the session you will experience how preparing and reflecting on your conversation can help you be more influential at work. You will learn how to communicate more effectively with the people needed to achieve positive change. You will leave with a self-revised version of a difficult conversation and a practical model to use when you get back to work.
Come learn more on how to become a real influencer!

Carrer goals.pptx and their importance in real lifeartemacademy2
Career goals serve as a roadmap for individuals, guiding them toward achieving long-term professional aspirations and personal fulfillment. Establishing clear career goals enables professionals to focus their efforts on developing specific skills, gaining relevant experience, and making strategic decisions that align with their desired career trajectory. By setting both short-term and long-term objectives, individuals can systematically track their progress, make necessary adjustments, and stay motivated. Short-term goals often include acquiring new qualifications, mastering particular competencies, or securing a specific role, while long-term goals might encompass reaching executive positions, becoming industry experts, or launching entrepreneurial ventures.
Moreover, having well-defined career goals fosters a sense of purpose and direction, enhancing job satisfaction and overall productivity. It encourages continuous learning and adaptation, as professionals remain attuned to industry trends and evolving job market demands. Career goals also facilitate better time management and resource allocation, as individuals prioritize tasks and opportunities that advance their professional growth. In addition, articulating career goals can aid in networking and mentorship, as it allows individuals to communicate their aspirations clearly to potential mentors, colleagues, and employers, thereby opening doors to valuable guidance and support. Ultimately, career goals are integral to personal and professional development, driving individuals toward sustained success and fulfillment in their chosen fields.
