This spring semester, the students were busy with getting into the basics of UX engineering from a theoretical and a practical perspective. Their goal for the first half of the project was to design alternative solutions of how to handle charts in OpenOffice.org Impress.</p> + <p align="center"> <img hspace="25" height="240" align="middle" width="320" vspace="25" src="http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/w/images/a/a5/Protofig1.jpeg" alt="Charts in Impress" /></p> + <p>In July, the team under the supervision of Prof. Dr. Kai-Uwe Hamborg visited us in Hamburg and the students were given the opportunity to present their redesign ideas to the UX team and the whole Imress team. We had a great discussion about current usability problems and how the designs proposed by the students might resolve the issues. For further details, please visit the <a href="http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Renaissance:UOS_HCI_Study_Project_2009">projectâs Wiki page</a>. In the coming winter term, the students will be busy conducting a usability study in order to validate the designs. We will keep you updated about their progress.<br /><br />The second project was also initiated this spring with the support of Prof. Hamborg who is by the way one of the creators of the <a href="http://www.isometrics.uni-osnabrueck.de/">IsoMetrcs usability questionnaire</a>. Our goal was to collect detailed information about the usage of office productivity applications in a university context. An intern of the <a href="http://www.psycho.uni-osnabrueck.de/fach/aopsych/">Department of Work and Organizational Psychology</a> conducted interviews to collect information regarding the tasks the students use office tools for. The task inventory was then used as input for a survey. This survey was conducted in several universities using the freely available <a href="http://www.limesurvey.org/">LimeSurvey</a> software which is also used by several OpenOffice.org teams. Data collection was just finished, so for now no detailed information is available. They only data that is available at the moment is that over a thousand students participated in the study, OpenOffice.org seems to not to be the leading (by numbers) office productivity tool in university context and Linux, as an operating systems, seems to be ahead of Apple Mac. A detailed analysis is what follows and as soon as the data has been processed, results will be posted here or in the <a href="http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Renaissance">Wiki of Project Renaissance.</a><br /><br />The results of the cooperation directly support <a href="http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Renaissance">Project Renaissance</a>.
