I wish the room had been big enough for all of you to be flies on the wall. It was fascinating, rewarding, and even a little nerve-wracking to observe the prospective college students surfing our site. Fortunately, a detailed report of the usability testing will be prepared by mStoner. Until then, here are a few of my anecdotal observations:
- Almost without exception, students clicked on Admission to find the cost of tuition; and on Campus Life to find out about student clubs.
- Almost all of the students commented about the beautiful photos of the W&M campus.
- Many of the student testers suggested that we make the list of "majors and minors" easier to find.
- Lots of students mentioned that they'd like to see more about athletics on the site.
- A good number of the students indicated that they would enjoy reading student blogs.
