The Impact of Usability Problems on the Perceived Usefulness and Perceived Enjoyment of an Augmented Reality Learning Scenario
Journal Title: Romanian Journal of Human - Computer Interaction - Year 2011, Vol 4, Issue 3
Abstract
Augmented reality technologies create new opportunities to increase students’ motivation to learn. The integration of real objects in a computing environemnt requires specific interaction techniques which are making more difficult the development of usable applications in this area. Individual usability evaluation methods have specific advantages but also limitations when used in isolation. This suggests as appropriate a mixed research methodology. This paper presents an analysis of the impact of usability problems on the perceived usefulness and perceived enjoyment that is based on the triangulation of quantitative and qualititative data.
