Usability

The design of Aura e-Learning courses complies with the key rules of "Usability," and these courses have been developed by following the best practices for User-Focused Design.

What is "Usability"?

"Usability" implies how easy to use a system is and allows the user to achieve objectives in an effective, efficient, and satisfactory way. The word "Usability" also refers to the methods and techniques to design a system that creates an excellent "User Experience."

What is User-Focused Design?

User-focused design consists of actively engaging users throughout the product development process to fully meet their needs. It implies a deep user understanding, the tasks that should be performed, and the inclusion of direct user feedback throughout the development process in order to achieve the best interaction between the user and technology.

Why is "Usability" important for e-Learning?

An e-Learning course that includes the principles of "Usability" has the following customer benefits:

  More attractive and easy to use interfaces and screens
  Less time for students to learn how to navigate or interact with the course
  More effective and clear instructions
  Clear and easy to use bottoms and interaction elements
  Fewer errors and less confusion when using all the course functions
  Less time lost trying to understand difficult instructions
  Easy to read information screens
  Greater student satisfaction with the course (a better user experience)
  A more effective learning because the student is focused on the learning experience (content and exercises) and not on how to use the course
