Paper Abstract:
|
This study aims to test the usability of MyLA (My Learning Analytics), an application for students at two German universities: The Cooperative State University Mannheim and University of Mannheim. The participating universities focus on the support of personalized and self-regulated learning. MyLA collects data such as learning behavior and strategies as well as personality traits. This paper presents the findings of a usability test of the web app prototype. A total of 105 students from both universities participated in the study. In addition to a quantitative usability survey, the app navigation and design was evaluated through an eye tracking investigation with seven participants. The findings indicate that the MyLA prototype is easy to use but requires slight modifications concerning the app design. |
