Setting Up, Debriefing, and Summarizing Results

Greeting participants
Explain the task
Warm up tasks
Give the questions
Sign the release form.
Ask if they have any questions.
Don´t give away what you want to measure or them to learn.

Instructions to Participants
We test UI not you!
They can quit at any time
Explain that you are not providing any help to them

Collecting data
What they did and think.
How many errors and where.
etc.

Debriefing
Show the critical incidences and what they think you could do better there.
Ask about design alternatives!

Summarize the results
Things that actually matter. Your brain is going to forget all the details and summarizes can be really valuable. Even just one sentence.

Prioritize the different results - then you know what you have to do next.
