This paper shows the results of the evaluation of two sets of mobile web design guidelines concerning mobile learning. The first set of guidelines is concerned with the usage of text on mobile device screens. The second set is concerned with the usage of images on mobile devices. The evaluation is performed by eye tracking (objective) as well as questionnaires and interviews (subjective) respectively.
When a new product is produced, it makes sense, to test the usability before its appearance on the market. Within such a test there are different methods which can be used. For example, the eyetracking method. This research report illustrates how the eyetracking method can be used in combination with a qualitative inquiry to identify problems of a product. The study was conducted in cooperation with the company K+UPrintwareGmbH in Ettenheim. The object of the study was the EcoCash recycling and selling machine. The main element of this study is the identification of problems in the user interface and the handling of the machine. Furthermore, solutions to solve the problems were included.
Prof. Gitte Lindgaard, from the University of Carleton, Canada, says that viewing only some milliseconds of the first page of a website defines our general opinion about it [1]. For an online-shop, it would therefore be essential to have a first page that is not only pleasing to the eye, but also understandable enough to not loose the attention of the user. More and more companies are nowadays using the Internet not only as a showcase anymore, but as a full-strength selling tool, needing thus to convince their users and clients at first glance. This paper shows the analysis of two online-shops in the magazines’ field thanks to eye-tracking. With the analysis of the testers’ glances and their comments during and after the test, the usability of these two websites has been evaluated.
