Palm Redesign report's cover screenshot humbnailDuring the HCI Methods class, we applied various HCI techniques to redesign a PDA interface. We used Contextual Inquiry and Modeling, GOMS/KLM, Heuristic Evaluation, Cognitive Walkthrough, and Thinkaloud usability tests to study the use of PIMs and possible improvements in the design of one, the venerable Palm IIIc. The executive summary provides an overview of the themes of our findings and how these inspired our redesign. The links above lead directly to the sections of the report that discuss the results of these HCI methods. We focused on "designing from data"; see the appendix for a grouping of our UARs (Usability Aspect Reports) by redesign focii.
