Are they different?
In this exercise, you will explore the impact that limited mobility has on using the Web. The setup for the user tests will be the same as for exercise 19, but the user will be allowed to use only one finger. Before beginning the test, set up the browser to display the home page of the test site and turn on Sticky Keys.
Recruit four people to test. These cannot be the same people who participated in the baseline study. When testing these users, obtain an informed consent and ask them to fill out the same pre-test questionnaire that you developed for exercise 19.
a. Write an orientation script that explains that you will be testing the effects that mobility limitations have on accessing the Web. Tell them that to simulate a motor disability, that they will only be able to use one finger and will not be able to use the mouse. Explain how to use Sticky Keys to simulate simultaneous key presses.
Use the same test scenarios and record the same measures that you did in exercise 19. You may need to remind the user not to use more than one finger.
b. Write up the results. Give a summary of responses on the pre-test questionnaire. For each task, create a table showing the measures for the four users.
c. Create a summary table that gives the average measures for each of the tasks.
d. Compare the measures from this group to the measures you collected in exercise 19.
