Software Usability Study for “Active Paper”

 

 

The following report is from a usability study I performed for a software company in
Austin, Texas. The software company, Active Paper, developed applications for the
Magic Cap mobile computing platform. I examined two novice users as they attempted
to set up the email application. I began with video recordings (from two cameras) of the
test subjects, from which I produced transcripts. The methodology I used was
“Conversation Analysis.”
