WIAD video talk: Foraging for creativity

What are the sources of creativity and what's the origin? How can we empower ourselves and wake the creativity within us.

For our first World Information Architecture event, we invited the Blagonić Brothers. Enjoy their “IA - reality is not a dream” session.

We've covered numerous topics and with this we are finalizing our Usability series. This is our conclusion, and we hope you've enjoyed the series.

This is a slightly different approach to user testing sessions. It involves you going to the user's location and watching them work.

You can write down comments about certain tasks, you can rate tasks numerically or you can combine both approaches.

During the main scenario part your most important goal is to re-create the situation that the user would have had in their "usual" environment.

Remember that the user is probably doing this for the first time and they can be a bit intimidated by the entire setting. Make them comfortable.

Two most obvious choices are at the user's premises or at yours. Which you decide on depends on the context of use and the kind of feedback.

You can either try to find participants by yourself, or you can hire an agency. In any case, scheduling the testing is not going be easy.
