FATIH EDUCATIONAL PROJECT PREPARED IN ACCORDANCE WITH EDUCATIONAL SOFTWARE USABILITY ASSESSMENT WAS PERFORMED WITH EYE TRACKING AND RETROSPECTIVE THINK ALOUD TECHNIQUES

Abstract

In this research, enriched books usability assessment was performed with eye tracking and retrospective think aloud techniques. The research is done in the Human-Computer Interaction Laboratory that resides in Computer Education and Instructional Technologies department of Marmara University. Data recording and analysis were obtained from the Human-Computer Interaction Laboratory  hardware and software tools. As a result of this study, 6’th grade social studies student course book, prepared in the format of a enriched book are evaluated in terms of usability, enriched books effective, efficient and user satisfaction recommendations are presented to provide access to quality attributes.
