Cognitive Walkthroughs
� The cognitive walkthrough is a technique for evaluating the design of a user interface, with special attention to how well the interface supports "exploratory learning," i.e., first-time use without formal training.
� The evaluation can be performed by the system's designers in the early stages of design, before empirical user testing is possible.

Iterative User Validations
� Iterative testing simply means testing that is repeated, or iterated, multiple times.
� Iterative usability testing matters because the ultimate goal of all usability work is to improve usability, not to catalogue problems.
� A single usability test - particularly if no action is taken based on its findings - can only tell you how successful or unsuccessful you were in creating ease of use.

unsuccessful you were in creating ease of use.
� To improve upon what you already have, recommendations based on the usability test's findings must be incorporated into a revision of the product.
� Once this has been done, it's advisable to test the product again to make sure that no additional usability flaws were incorporated with the fixes to the previously found glitches.
� Set your goals in advance > Task success rate? Satisfaction rate?
Self-service
� Integrate click-to-chat
� Add in quick-start guides
� Instructional Video Modules
� Contextual FAQs

Your Checklist
� If you write it.....they may come – but have no idea what is going on!
� In the US, the average adult reads at an eighth grade level. Nearly half the population has low literacy.
� According to usability guru Jakob Nielsen, 30 percent of web users have low literacy and that number will reach 40 percent by 2010.
� And while you might worry that "dumbing down" will turn off higher literacy users, this doesn't appear to be the case.

doesn't appear to be the case.
� Rather, studies show that tailoring pages to low-literacy users improves all users' ability to find correct information faster, and to feel more satisfied with their experience.
Your Checklist
� 1. Concise: People who visit your website aren‘t looking to read a novel. To-the-point writing makes it 58 percent easier for your readers to fulfill their tasks—whether they're absorbing information or making a purchase. Here‘s how to do it:
� Cut it short
� Keep it simple
� Stay focused

� 2.Scannable: Scannable copy is 47 percent more usable (MorkesandNielsen, 1997) because it helps your readers quickly find what they‘re seeking. Scan these tips to make it happen:
� Decorate key words
� Use subheads
� Create lists
� Write inverted pyramids
Your Checklist
� 3. Objective: Unfortunately, credibility is hard to come by on the web. So how do you earn your readers‘ trust?
� Be believable and balanced
� Provide proof
� Solve problems
� 4. Personable: By reaching out with more personal writing, you‘ll more effectively make a connection and encourage action. Here‘s how to get

effectively make a connection and encourage action. Here‘s how to get started:
� Know your reader
� Create a conversation
� Choose punch over grammar
Your Checklist
� 5. Searchable: Search engines constantly scour the web for them. They add them to their indexes.
Then, when someone punches those words into a search box, they suggest relevant pages. Readers click to those pages and expect to see the words they‘re seeking.

Here‘s how to start satisfying both search engines and readers:
� Write what they search
� Add keywords
� Showcase relevance
