Hi all, I'm not sure how usability works other places, but at my company we currently run mostly functional usability testing where the user has to complete a task. When they complete a task with minimal effort/confusion/etc. then that is deemed a successful outing. If not well you get the point.
We are currently looking to test new concepts that I know will confuse most users since the idea is so new to them. I read in a recent Adaptive Path essay about the "wow" factor and they mentioned using video of the interaction then showing a user how the concept would work. My question to the group is has anyone done this type of usability testing before?? If so what were you goals/objectives for the test (user acceptance/excitement etc)? How did you set up the video/flash/interaction etc? was this method successful for you? Any info on this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Lis Hubert ________________________________________________________________ *Come to IxDA Interaction08 | Savannah* February 8-10, 2008 in Savannah, GA, USA Register today: http://interaction08.ixda.org/ ________________________________________________________________ Welcome to the Interaction Design Association (IxDA)!
