Heuristic evaluation

Heuristic and Accessibility Evaluation of Wordpress.com This report provides an analysis of the heuristic evaluation used to evaluate Wordpress, an open source website creation tool that simplifies the process of blogging and website content management. The heuristic evaluation will be performed using the “heuristics” provided by Jacob Nielsen. For this evaluation, ten heuristics were used to analyze the core functionalities of Wordpress, which include creating blogs, managing website content easily and conveniently for users with no or very knowledge of coding. The goal is to identify major usability flaws in the Wordpress website using Jacob Neilson’s ten heuristic evaluations: 1. Visibility of system status 2. Match…

EVALUATION Heuristic #1 The use of synchronous modes of CMC like text-chat and instant messaging are not requirements but merely suggestions made in Baker, et. al. 2002. All four RVCS do not offer these types of synchronous modes within their environments. Hence, synchronous CMC must be done out of band. However, all four RVCS do require the group member to provide comments as to what edits and changes were made and their rationale upon checking the artifact back into the repository following…

through the problem. New knowledge has helped me in an abundance to be able to apply certain principles and concepts in my life. During the duration of my psychology class, which is taught by an exceptional teacher, I learned many concepts and principles; many in which apply to my life but I specifically chosen three concepts that apply more than others. These three concepts are heuristics, algorithms, and mental set. The way I administer heuristics is when I am in need of a quick answer that…

problems in their work process.” (S.Buchbinder and N.Shanks). PDCA (Plan, Do, Check, and Act) would also work in this case because when Dr. Rose gave her information as planned, everything should have been done as protocol of the organization askes their employees to do. Checking the given information and following proper procedures as to when to place the information is very important. Top three management issues that occurred were lack of empathy that required to better understand and…

These cognitive bases include simple inferences, heuristics, the frequency heuristic, and the truth effect. Simple inferences refer to when a consumer forms beliefs based off of very simplistic cues and/or associations. Simple inferences can also be influenced by brand endorsements. A consumer may believe that a product is of higher value or top quality because of who is depicted in the ad. Consumers use heuristics, which are “simple rules of thumb” to form attitudes and make judgments (Hoyer,…

Child abuse and neglect is the topic for my Civic Engagement speech. In this speech I will persuade students to donate to the Kempe Foundation for The Prevention and Treatment of Child Abuse and Neglect. I will be using three of the following concepts: Availability Heuristic, Authority, and Friendship or Liking. Availability Heuristic is a mental short cut the human brain makes when evaluating things such as concepts or decisions. Humans estimate the likelihood of events based on the…

and shortcuts that people create in order to efficiently perceive the social world with as much accuracy as possible. One of these processes is automatic processing that influences how people may implements previously learned and experienced material into their perception of situations in a quick and efficient manner (Bargh, 1989). On the other hand, controlled processing is slower and more effortful because it analyses the situation step-by-step. Social perception is highly relevant for…

The report is prepared three years after an external evaluation. 2) Follow-up report. This report is required when an institution needs to address a recommendation. It can also be used to resolve deficiencies identified during the external evaluation. 3) Special report. When the commission discovers a significant concern about the institution it issues a special report. 4) Show cause report. This report is handed out to colleges when the commission is removing the accreditation from the…

Of course, summative evaluation can also be embedded into the game. Solve a 4x4 matrix to kill the Demogorgon. It personal, an instructor or if money permits, hey we got money use an AI to determine the next challenge the student needs to encounter. Allow me to clarify one point. Many people believe that students are going to sitting in front of a computer for hours and hours playing games and learning a topic. I do not see this to be the case, in almost any situation. Serious games are going…

All three students have strengths in being very observant in class. This notifies me that I need to engage the class is a discussion. A debate or Socratic seminar might work best for this class and especially these three students because of how vocal they are. However, their weaknesses and the ways in which these three learn are very different. I would never be able to pair Aiden and Logan because Aiden is dependent on another person, and Logan is independent and works best by working alone.…
