  1. UC HIPO Help for Instructor Portal Lois Wei Minakshi Mukherjee Tofer Merritt

  2. About UC HIPO • HIPO is Help for Instructor POrtal • Part of UCWISE (University of California Web-based Instruction for Science and Engineering) • UCWISE provides technology and curricula for experimental laboratory –base courses in university level computer science and engineering

  3. UC HIPO – Needs & Goals • Need for UC HIPO • Present instructor portal is functional but not very user friendly • Goals of UC HIPO Metadata tagging tool • Facilitate tagging of curriculum content with metadata to facilitate easy categorization, retrieval, reuse and sharing of information related to curriculum and study material

  4. Heuristic Evaluationand Improvements on the Interactive Prototype

  5. Section 1: Bookkeeping Metadata No cues about the purpose of this page ? No visual connection between bookkeeping metadata and Using Templates Preview window generally on right side Navigation components - rarely at the bottom and needs to be visible

  6. Section 1: Bookkeeping Metadata (Improved) Navigation buttons moved to top Preview moved to the right; Color scheme changed Combined bookkeeping and the templates page Added comment about the page

  7. Section 2: Cognitive Learning No cues about the purpose of this page ? Preview window does not stand out Task flow not clear Colored bar: distracting, purpose unclear

  8. Section 2: Cognitive Learning (Improved) Cognitive learning spectrum: moved to left, colored bar replced with check boxes

  9. Section 3: Instructor Notes Cancel button and save button at different places Function of labels not clear

  10. Section 3: Instructor Notes (Improved) Reset and Save buttons placed closer Moved metadata section to the left; put check boxes

  11. Demo

  12. Pilot Study • Method followed • Participants • Test Measures • Number of errors • Time taken to complete the tasks

  13. Pilot Study Results • General feedback • Like the overall look and feel of the tool • Like the preview bar • Prefer dynamic update

  14. Conclusions

  15. Lessons Learned • Solid base design vs. User’s demand • Simple is better • Difficult to satisfy all user’s choices • User generally assumes that the tool dynamically updates

  16. Plans for last iteration • Replace the ‘Update’ and ‘Go’ button with dynamic update • Adjust metadata fields • Adjust reset button • Cognitive learning section – the box to remain checked during expansion • Ensure text gets saved during context switching
