In this interactive session, you will try a range of online IA and UX research tools we used in Agile and not-so-Agile projects. In each project, the tool was stretched in an unconventional way to solve a thorny research objective.
We’ll try out these tools from your mobile devices and from the screen. Examples of what you will see include: how to add an invitation for live testing to a tree test, using an actor and an online tree-testing tool to prototype a voice response system, enriching your analysis with a remote eye-tracking service, and how you can use survey tools to prototype wizard-like application processes.
You will come away with new ideas about using online usability tools to help your team make great design decisions.

Instructions: We are interested in whether
you actually take the time to read the
directions. So, in order to demonstrate that
you have read the instructions, please ignore
the question below. Instead, simply put your
hand on your opposite shoulder.
Do you have on online survey account?
Yes – put your hand up
No, not yet
Audio connection
Presenter view
Test video
Get Books out
Start timer – starts on first click – have two title slides
Turn email off – so pings don’t sound
Ran my first usability test on a protoype I’d built back in 1986
The IA Workhorse
Does so much – all about learning
There are others – we just happen to use this one

You might wonder why SurveyMonkey? I’m going to show you a few research twists
Who’s from Canada?
NSA and all, we’ve got to keep our data in Canada – Fluid does that.
We love these guys because they’re so responsive
Especially when we add a twist…
Pop-up invites that we redirect to Treejack, and then back again
Before I start into this topic, I’ll just get a feel for the room…if you could use your hands...
So if you could use your hand to indicate your answer. I’ll start reading it…
Not surprising that so many hands went up. It’s a screen, and you are human.
Interactive, can embed in an existing site page template
Once we saw what it could do, we could prototype 1 sprint ahead of the dev team
Fluid surveys has a lot of branching and logic - don’t have to be a programmer – got business rules solved ahead of dev - would do this with the team
Something else I’ve done with Fluid sureys
System had facets that just didn’t seem to be working, but we weren’t sure what the problem was
One page composed of lots of questions – data combined with some formulas in Excel
Last survey example – combine 2 online tools
Get from this
To this in 6 weeks
What you see: success rates rising over iterative tests of a navigation design for a site
2 questions on Treejack of EXISTING site from Study 1
Leave some time between online study and performing same tasks on prototype site
2 questions from original site tested as a benchmark
Important – don’t include in actual study
Ethics/anonymity & risk more drop
Press 1 for this, press 2 for that… huge tree
Knew we would fake it but how…

Reads from Treekjack - confederate
Actually 2 trees, comparing an approach similar to their website versus a more traditional approach
A few glitches, - very nice support person at Optimal
