12. Usability Test: Survey before the Test Have you ever used maps on a computer? 31.01.2011Participatory App12 male female yes no

13. Usability Test: Survey before the Test What did you use these maps for? Geocaching Google Earth Routing Length of a route View own house 31.01.2011Participatory App13

14. Usability Test: Survey before the Test Are you good at using maps? 31.01.2011Participatory App14 male female very good good bad very bad

15. Usability Test: Simulation 31.01.2011Participatory App15 http://giv-learn.uni-muenster.de/participatoryapp/usabilitytest

16. Usability Test: Survey after the Test How easily could you place a point on the map? 31.01.2011Participatory App16 male female very well well bad very bad

17. Usability Test: Survey after the Test How easily could you insert the information? 31.01.2011Participatory App17 male female very good good bad very bad

18. Usability Test: Survey before the Test What did you like? possibility to map points moving of points traffic light symbol idea of the application 31.01.2011Participatory App18 What didn‘t you like? help page

19. Usability Test: Survey after the Test Did you need the help page? 31.01.2011Participatory App19 male female yes no

20. Usability Test: Survey after the Test If yes, did the help page help you to solve your problem? 31.01.2011Participatory App20 male female yes no

21. Usability Test: Survey after the Test Do you have any ideas for improvement? GPS live positioning Don‘t use English terms (help page, explanations). It should be easier to place points. The buttons should be more remarkable. Show the help as an introduction. 31.01.2011Participatory App21

22. Usability Test: Survey after the Test Did you like the test? 31.01.2011Participatory App22 male female yes, is was very good yes, it was good no, it was bad no, it was very bad One answer is missing.

23. Usability Test: Observations Difficulties: The button „Find me“ wasn‘t found intuitively. The functionality „Change position“ wasn‘t intuitive. Some users wanted to use „Drag & Drop“ to change the position of the marker. Difficulties to distinguish between the current position (marker) and the mapped points (server). The buttons weren‘t remarkable enough. It isn‘t intuitive to click on the marker to map a point. They had difficulties to read the old version of the help page (confusing, sometimes English terms, bad phrasing). 31.01.2011Participatory App23

24. Ideas for improvements Introduction help (e.g. video) The buttons should be more visible. The popup window should automatically open after finding or changing the position. Add a button „Map point“. Center the new placed point. Offer more types. Use the GPS signal to get a more precise position. Update the GPS position automatically. Use only one language in the help. Use „Drag & Drop“ to change the position. 31.01.2011Participatory App24

25. Latest Improvements Introduction help (e.g. video) The buttons should be more visible. The popup window should automatically open after finding or changing the position. Add a button „Map point“. Center the new placed point. Offer more types. Use the GPS signal to get a more precise position. Update the GPS position automatically. Use only one language in the help. Use „Drag & Drop“ to change the position. 31.01.2011Participatory App25

26. Latest Improvements 31.01.2011Participatory App26 Intro Video

27. Test program at school wasn‘t the finished version. Because of this there is still some work to do beside fixing the problems which where found in the test. Differentiation between obligatory and optional work Problems / Future Work

28. Upload data to the server Download data from the server and visualize them with the right attributes and symbols Move and delete points Help review Finding intuitive icons to replace the buttons Some design stuff Obligatory Work

29. Possibility for administrator to develop or change categories Provide an option to switch between German and English Optimization of the page size depending on the screen size Counter for more than one time created points Optional Work
