No previous message | Next message →
Dear list,
last week I attended a conferece and listened to a presentation on using
eyetracking for usability evaluation, creating heat maps and similar
data on what the user looks at. Now I thought about if there is
something similar available for people who use a screenreader. Is it
possible to track and trace what a screenreader user reads and where
he/she navigates to? Does it make sense from your point of view? I could
think about usability evaluations where you track what the people
navigate to, how they explore a website they don't know yet. It would be
interesting to do this otherwise than using methods like think-aloud.
Regards
Björn

I've done testing like this where the session was simply audiotaped. Keep in mind this will record a lot of information about the user's process of finding information as well as about what they're really interested in, both of which can be valuable.

Audio recording for simultaneous data comparison is really the best way to
go. As long as you have clear visual/audio cues, matching the streams
should not be too difficult either.
