Outline

• Review of Heuristic Evaluation

• Web Design Process, Specialties & Artifacts

• Detailed Design Example

• Web Design Patterns

CSE490jl - Autumn 2004 User Interface Design, Prototyping, and Evaluation 6

Review of Heuristic Evaluation• Have evaluators go through the UI twice• Ask them to see if it complies with heuristics

– note where it doesn’t & say why

• Combine the findings from 3 to 5 evaluators• Have evaluators independently rate severity• Alternate with user testing

Good Web Site Design Matters

Good Web Site Design can Lead to Healthy Saleshttp://www.nytimes.com/library/tech/99/08/cyber/commerce/30commerce.html

• NY Times, Aug 30 1999, on IBM Web site– “Most popular feature was … search …

because people couldn't figure out how to navigate the site“

– “The second most popular feature was the help button, because the search technology was so ineffective.”

• After redesign– use of the "help" button decreased 84 percent

– sales increased 400 percent

Artifacts of Design Practice

• Designers create representations of sites at multiple levels of detail

• Web sites are iteratively refined at all levels of detail

Site Maps Storyboards Schematics Mock-ups

CSE490jl - Autumn 2004 User Interface Design, Prototyping, and Evaluation 11

Site Maps

• High-level, coarse-grained view of entire site

CSE490jl - Autumn 2004 User Interface Design, Prototyping, and Evaluation 12

Storyboards

• Interaction sequence, minimal page level detail

CSE490jl - Autumn 2004 User Interface Design, Prototyping, and Evaluation 13

Schematics

• Page structure w/ respect to information & navigation

CSE490jl - Autumn 2004 User Interface Design, Prototyping, and Evaluation 14

Mock-ups

• High-fidelity, precise representation of page
