A children, teachers and designers as evaluators of usability of educational software
Abstract
This article sets out to discuss the results of evaluations of usability made by children, teachers and designers through methods targeted on their profiles and contexts of use. Based on a survey of methods for evaluating usability, a field study was conducted in which such users - stakeholders - explored the educational software called "Mundo da Criança" (“Child’s World”). The focus of this study was the analysis of this system and principally of the appropriateness of methods as to the avenues they suggest such users and contexts might explore.
