This challenge is especially frustrating when the documentation professional isn't involved until late in the development process. As a documentation professional, you need techniques that will empower you to play a proactive role in the development of the entire product, not just the documentation. This two-day course is a mixture of lectures and exercises. While the major focus is on prototyping and usability testing of software products and documentation, we also discuss other useful techniques such as contextual inquiry and user myths. Based on our recent research projects, you will get the latest information on how to develop usable wizards, cue cards and on-line help. You will work with other participants to practice the techniques taught in the class. Who Should Attend: This course is for documentation professionals and managers who develop documentation (printed or on-line), help, tutorials or other product learning aids. An understanding of usability concepts is helpful, but not required. Course Topics: Basics of Usability Testing Choosing the Right Technique Designing a Usability Test Prototyping Techniques Techniques For Documentation Learning From Usability Tests Working on the Team Each participant will receive Penny Bauersfeld's Software By Design: Creating People Friendly Software.
