启发式评估指南(翻译)

Ami Post in 小兔翻译

翻阅手边的书,其中提到启发式评估往往就一两个段落,没有较全的介绍。这篇是不错的指南,特此翻译并共享给大家。不过感觉直译比较生硬难理解,小兔翻译的时候就没有严格依据原文了,E文不错的同学们还是看原文为佳,呵呵~

Heuristic Evaluation
启发式评估

启发式评估(专家评审)这种诊断法,是由专家来扮演经验不足的用户,提出用户使用系统或界面时,可能出现遇见的问题。评审会基于遵守一系列的准则(heuristics)。作为一种“打折”的方法,启发式评估是为了快速修改、让交付物作为迭代设计的过程中的一部分。

Test Facilitator Guide

Our goal is to see how easy or difficult you find the site to use. We will record your reactions and opinions; so, we may ask you to clarify statements that you make from time to time.

Test Facilitator’s Role 测试员的角色
I’m here to record your reactions and comments of the Web site you’ll view. In a conference room nearby we have a few people who also will observe your interaction with the site. During this session I will not be able to offer any suggestions or hints. There may be times, however, when I’ll ask you to explain why you said or did something.
我在这里记录你对看到的网站的反应和评价。在附近的一个会议室,我们有一些人也能看见你在网站上的操作。过程中我不会发表意见或者提示。不过,我有时会询问你为什么你那么说、那么做。

Test Participant’s Role 参与者的角色
I will ask you to search for information on this site to learn if it works well for you. We’ll do this by giving you scenarios or tasks to complete on the site. You also will be asked a series of questions about your experience at the end of this session.

Develop Personas 关于角色的建立

Ami Post in 小兔翻译

最近和我们的UI设计师一起讨论交互设计的时候,逐渐开始感觉对Persona的需要。 有时候,某个功能到底该怎样设计,方式A好还是方式B好,要看针对什么样的用户。这个时候,如果能举出一个典型的例子,比如某某、在什么样的情况下需要这个功能……就比较能够得出答案。

那么,逐渐地建立几个比较形象的用户的概念,自然会有助于我们的设计。小兔翻译了些资料作为参考,和大家分享下吧:

What characteristics are included in a persona?
角色包括些什么特性?
本文来自www.amizhang.com/blog
A persona usually includes:
角色通常包括:

    [*]a name and picture 名字和照片
    [*]demographics (age, education, ethnicity, family status)

——————————————————————————–

How do we select a name and photo?
怎样选择名字和照片

You make up the persona's name. Select one that resonates with the team as representing that user group. Be relevant and serious; humor usually is not appropriate here.
取个角色的名字。选个在代表用户群体时,和团队有共鸣的。要严肃而贴切,通常幽默在这并不合适。
本文来自www.amizhang.com/blog
For a picture, you can buy or license stock photography, although a more casual photo often resonates more with development teams. Don't make it a picture of someone the team knows. Make sure you have permission for the photo that you use. You can tell that you have a good picture if the team sees it and says "Oh, yes, that would be Jim, the Press Guy" or "Oh, yes, that's just what I see when I think of Rebecca, the Program Officer."
你可以从摄影库中买或获得许可获得一张照片,尽管一张更随意的照片经常让开发团队有更多的共鸣。不要用团队成员认识的某人的照片。确认你有照片的使用权。若你的的团队看见照片时说“哦对,这就该是Jim,那个做出版的”或者“对啦,我想Rebecca就是这样的,那个项目官员”时,你可以说你有了张好照片。

    [*]By always asking, "Would Jim use this?" the team can avoid the trap of building what users ask for rather than what they will actually use.

    [*]Design efforts can be prioritized based on the personas.
