User sessions 09/21

This page is a summary of the process and findings of the two user sessions executed in September 2021.

These user sessions were conducted in the context of Erediensten

The sessions

Goal

  • Help users understand and navigate the Koala release of the Organisatieportaal (Erediensten)

  • Gather feedback for potential improvements and future releases

Participants

We held two sessions. One for ISLG (6 participants) and one for LOW (6 participants).

A session for LF is still pending

Format

  1. Introduction: who is who?

  2. Introduction: OrganisatiePortaal

    1. For the first session (ISLG) we started with an introduction to the Organisation Portal, as the users hadn't seen it prior to the sessions. This part was skipped for LOW as they had already participated in user testing sessions.

  3. Session

    1. We asked the participants whether they had tried to use the application yet, and if so, what their thoughts were so far.

    2. Each participant had to share their screen one by one and complete a task in the application.

  4. After the session, we had one final feedback moment where participants could share their concerns, thoughts, and any other feedback about the session and the application.

The Findings

Overall, all participants managed to complete the set tasks (only one participant out of the 12 present needed nudging for a task). This doesn't mean there weren't any issues found.

Session/Application feedback

  • "The session was useful, I wouldn't have tried test scenarios on my own." - would like sessions in the future

  • Worry that not everything is in a logical flow yet

  • Excited to see what the future brings

  • data accuracy concern, but overall good feeling

  • Recording sessions in the future so that people who cannot attend can still watch and learn?
