Practice Usability Test.

well its been arranged that hopefully in a weeks time we will be taking a practice run at performing a usability test.

Operated like any real usability test, we will need four pieces of documentation:

Moderators Script
Task List
Consent Form
De-Brief Questionnaire

each one of us in class will be tasked with creating one of these. i have been tasked at creating the Moderators Script.

The moderators script has to have, pretty much to the letter, the exact words that the test moderator will say to the voluntary participant before, and after they have completed the tasks set out for them. it needs to inform them of the basic task, explain the purposes of testing, indicate that refreshments are available, and that if they ever feel uncomfortable, that they can end the test at any time.
Ideally, the Moderators script should answer any questions the participants have prior to taking the test.
