Unit 5 Reading Response
Chapter 8 describes the tension that can occur between workers due to
personal preference in usability and the perceived notion of a formula that
will work in all situations. This is not a comfortable topic for most due to
the deeply tied emotional responses triggered by a person’s passion for their
career. The best approach is to look at design and functionality in an
objective, case by case basis. Understanding that different approaches to
solutions are necessary in a team environment.
Chapter 9 speaks about the differences between usability testing and
focus groups. Focus groups can help direct the intent of the overall job
through talks about the needs and desires of the use. Usability testing is much
different and encompasses the entire scope of how thing work and users
reactions to the elements they encounter. There are multiple tests that have
the ability to save the company money in the long run. Weeding out unnecessary,
complicating elements to improve the experience, deciding the most efficient way
to tackle resolutions, and clarification of all necessary data are some of the
ways usability testing can prove useful. Test, test, and retest.
