Second Usability Testing Plan

Now that we have completed our clickable wireframes, we will conduct a usability test with 3-5 individuals meeting our target demographic.  We will be able to find 3-5 Fisher students through our business classes.  We most likely will not need to send out an email or flyer as our target market is accessible through our classes.  We can ask classmates and group members for our other business projects.

Our site hasn't changed much since our paper prototypes.  We did add a navigation bar to the home page, as our previous user test revealed that it was confusing as to where to log-in from the home page.  We considered changing the name of the site and omitting the GPA option as they, too, came up as potential usability problems during the initial test.  Ultimately, we decided that the name was fine, so long as, we kept the tagline "Your Custom Course Catalog" under it on the home page.  As well, we felt as though making GPA an optional form would alleviate pressure for users to put down their GPA, though those who felt comfortable could.

Since there was very little changed on the clickable wireframes, we probably wont change the script to the testing much at all.  We will take another look at the script and consider any fine-tuning that needs addressed.
