Description
Everyone wants people to use our university portals. We are careful to make our portals aesthetically pleasing and appropriately branded. Nevertheless, are our portals usable and receptive to users needs? This presentation will cover what is and isn't usability. We will focus on the benefits of usability to our portal users and on the principles of user-centered design. Also, we will cover how to use usability studies to improve the interactions between users and our university portals. Lastly, we will share our recent experiences at BYU as we have redesigned our portal to improve user experience.
