This study aimed at developing a model of a research methodology to ensure quality control of the design and production of field researches and studies in the field of eLearning. The idea for the study emerged as a result of gaps, and the difficulties faced by researchers and practitioners in the field of eLearning to monitor the effective and ineffective field practices in this area. It was found...
Hazard map systems provide bicycle riders with information regarding hazardous locations. Conventional hazard map systems use data on previous accidents and inhabitant interviews to identify hazardous locations. This conventional interview approach, however, is subjective and information regarding past accidents cannot identify potentially hazardous locations. Therefore, this paper proposes a new...
This case history describes a study that emulated field research in the usability laboratory, a methodology for gaining some benefits of ethnography when it is not practical to visit users' environments. We used stage design techniques to create three “environments”: home, office, and restaurant. In these environments, we learned some contextual information despite the controlled setting.
Based on field study and Site investigations, this paper obtains the relationship between thermal comfort and air temperature, air velocity, relative humidity and means radiant temperature of naturally ventilated houses in countryside of subtropical region. According to Fanger[1], one will feel good when the thermal comfort vote is in the interval [−1, 1]. Thus, this thesis gains the reasonable interval...
This paper discusses a user research method the authors have refined over several years: field usability testing. Field usability testing combines techniques from traditional laboratory usability testing and condensed contextual inquiry, itself an adaptation of traditional contextual inquiry methods. The authors describe two approaches or models of field usability testing: ethnographic and structured...
