课程名称:用户体验中的生产力设计 课程概述:本课程为在线用户体验(UX)学院(OUXI)开发的全面在线课程中的D15.2号课程,由领域内顶尖专家讲授。课程深入探讨用户体验设计的特定方面,特别关注软件应用程序和网站的用户界面对整体用户体验的影响,涉及五个关键特性:实用性(内容或功能对目标用户是否有用?)、可用性(是否易于学习以及完成任务?)、图形设计(视觉设计是否美观?)、说服力(是否支持和激励用户采取期望的行动?)和功能完整性(是否能顺利工作,没有错误或故障?)。 可用性进一步分为两个质量:学习的易用性(是否易于学习如何完成任务?)和使用的易用性(一旦学会,任务是否可以快速和轻松地完成?)。这两个术语常常被混淆,但实际上它们并不相同,且在用户界面设计中往往相互冲突。 本课程涵盖两个主要主题:效率设计指南和效率评估技术。课程内容具体且实用,设计指南和评估技术经过30年的用户体验学科研究、验证和完善。课程提供了24个通用的效率设计指南,易于解释、常被违反且对用户生产力有高影响。 此外,课程还介绍三种效率评估技术,这些技术可在设计和开发过程的不同阶段使用,以便在最具成本效益的时候提高用户界面的效率。课程形式为PPT演示,并配有讲师录制的视频,包含3个多小时的视频(分为短讲座)和1.5至2小时的可选实践练习。 下载的课程材料包括:通用使用说明、完整的PowerPoint演示文稿(两种格式),Excel模板、设计和评估任务的指导检查表等。学员可以请求课程完成证书,并参与与讲师及其他学员的问答论坛。如有疑问,欢迎通过邮箱联系讲师。完成课程后,讲师Dr. Mayhew还提供辅导和指导服务,帮助学员将新技能应用到实际项目中。
This course is course number D15.2 from a comprehensive online curriculum on User eXperience (UX) currently under development by top experts in the field through The Online User eXperience Institute (OUXI). COURSE CONTENTThis is an in-depth course on a particular aspect of designing for the User eXperience.Overall user experience with software applications and websites is impacted by five key qualities of their user interface:· Utility (is the content/functionality useful to intended users?)· Usability (is it easy to learn and accomplish tasks?) · Graphic Design (is the visual design aesthetically pleasing?)· Persuasiveness (are desired actions supported and motivated?) · Functional Integrity (does it work smoothly without bugs or crashes?)The usability of a user interface can be further subdivided into two separate qualities: · Ease-of-learning (is it easy to learn how to accomplish tasks?)· Ease-of-use (can tasks be accomplished quickly and easily once learned?) The terms ease-of-learning and ease-of-use are often used interchangeably, but they are not the same thing. In fact, they often come into direct conflict with one another in user interface design. That is, a user interface that feels easy-to-learn to novices may soon come to feel tedious and inefficient as they gain expertise, especially if they are high frequency users. Similarly, a user interface with a steep learning curve may eventually come to feel powerful, flexible and highly efficient once a user is trained and using it frequently.Ease-of-learning is usually more important to novice, casual or intermittent users. Ease-of-use is usually more important to trained, high frequency, expert users. However, even casual, intermittent users, such as users of public websites, will notice - and be frustrated with - designs that limit their efficiency in obvious ways.Two overall topics are covered in this course:· Efficiency design guidelines· Efficiency evaluation techniquesThe course is a very concrete, "how-to" course. Both the design guidelines offered and the evaluation techniques taught have been researched, validated and refined by the User eXperience discipline over the past 30 years.The subset of 24 design guidelines for efficiency offered in this course were selected from the full body of knowledge on software and website usability to be: · Universal (i.e., applicable to most if not all applications and websites)· Easy to explain· Commonly violated· High impact (on user productivity)· Easy to implementThey thus represent the "low-hanging fruit" in designing for software and website user efficiency. The rationale for each guideline is explained, and clear examples are offered to enhance understanding.Just as with code, usability design guidelines will only take you so far. In addition, you need evaluation techniques to assess designs for efficiency to insure an application or website will meet its business goals at launch. Earlier design changes are always easier and cheaper than late design changes. The three evaluation techniques taught in this course are: · Efficiency heuristic evaluations· Keystroke level modeling· Efficiency studiesThese different techniques can be used at different points in the design and development process to exploit opportunities to improve efficiency in the user interface design when it is most cost effective to do so. Learning the evaluation techniques also helps deepen the understanding of the design guidelines.COURSE FORMATThe course format is a PowerPoint presentation accompanied by a studio-recorded video of the instructor. The course includes a little over three hours of video (broken into short lectures) with PowerPoint slides, and roughly 1.5 - 2 hours of optional hands-on exercises, for which sample solutions are provided.Downloadable course materials include: · A set of general instructions for getting the most out of Udemy courses· The full PowerPoint presentation (in two formats - full slides, and two slides per page)· Live, Excel-based templates (used in exercises, and which you can also use as you apply your new skills on real development projects)· A handy guidelines checklist (for quick reference during design and evaluation tasks on the job) In addition you can request a Certificate of Course Completion, and participate in a question and answer forum with the instructor and other course subscribers.Please feel free to contact the instructor with any questions about this course at drdeb@ouxinstitute.com. Dr. Mayhew is also available for coaching/mentoring to people who have completed this course and are putting their new skills to work on real projects. Inquire at: drdeb@ouxinstitute.com.
