文摘

Existing evaluations of learning systems are mostly based on a subjective feedback from end users, in order to measure their satisfaction and experience with the system. The results usually only indicate which areas are weaker than others; comments obtained from users are often casual and fuzzy. Therefore we propose a systematic review of usability and visual appeal by experts in HCI to complement current practice. Our solution of assessment is based on a framework of design requirements for e-learning purposes, which provides a concise easy to follow checklist, covering all significant areas of design assessment. This approach offers factual design issues which should be dealt with and can be especially useful in cases, where feedback from users is hard to obtain or it does not reveal any useful information.
