Usability Evaluation of “Web Macerası” as an Instructional and Evaluation Method

Abstract

“Web Macerası”, in which various Internet and Web technologies were employed, was designed as a dynamic system in order to integrate educational technology into teaching-learning process, and the usability of this system was evaluated in this study. The pretests and the posttests were developed and the scenarios were written for performing heuristic walkthrough evaluation. The usability evaluations were carried out by help of 5 students and 5 academicians who were volunteers and experts in their field. The usability tests results revealed that both two groups have finished the process with success of 75%. It was determined that informing the users on theoretical basis of “Web Macerası” approach, using different concepts for some processes and providing extra links relating to some procedures would help for increasing the systems’ usability
