Heuristic Evaluation and User Experience Redesign of 'Think Link' Learning Environment – A Case Study

摘要

The online learning environment 'think & link' facilitates the teaching-learning of software conceptual design for undergraduate computer engineers. The learning environment's design can influence learners' learning experience. In this paper, we report the process of heuristic evaluation to evaluate the learning experience provided by 'think & link'. Heuristic evaluation involves the expert(s) to evaluate a user interface based on usability criteria to identify usability problems. Findings from the heuristic evaluation indicated certain issues relating to user experience and resulted in a user experience redesign. The process of evaluation, usability problems identified and redesign is presented as a case study.
