For this assignment use Jakob Nielson’s examples of Heuristics to review either the Maryland MVA website (mva.maryland.gov) or the White House website (whitehouse.gov)
In this assignment, you will imagine that you are one of the experts being called to do an evaluation of one of the websites.
Nielson speaks about Heuristics in this (video) and more on the subject for your use in this assignment can be found here and here. More resources on the subject can be found here.
What should be in your report:
On this Bb Discussion Board section, post a PDF report that includes the following:
1. Provide a defense as to why the website does or does not meet the heuristics covered. You may provide a table of the list of the heuristics with a yes or no next to the heuristic title to denote whether the heuristic is achieved in your opinion. But you must provide commentary and defend your stance. Your assignment should be 2-3 pages in length.
2. Provide screenshots that help illustrate your points (if screenshots are not possible, provide
sketches)
3. Also provide recommendations on what you would propose to help the website meet the heuristics based on your knowledge gained through the class and beyond.
The primary goal of the assignment is that you thoughtfully defend a rationale for why the system meets the heuristic requirements. Keep the following in mind:
Overall severity rating on a scale of 0–4
0 = I don’t agree that this is a usability problem at all
1 = Cosmetic problem only: need not be fixed unless extra time is available on project 2 = Minor usability problem: fixing this should be given low priority
3 = Major usability problem: important to fix, so should be given high priority
4 = Usability catastrophe: imperative to fix this before the product can be released (Nielsen)
