Proposal:

Evaluation of the OLPC with Usability Engineering

Name: Carlos Mauro Cardenas Fernandez

Email: unimauro@gmail.com

Blog: http:unimauiro.blogspot.com

My proposal is:

Making a comparative study of usability with the OLPC Sugar and WINDOWS. Through TEST usability in a marginal urban population of Lima, Peru. With a sample of 6 boys and 6 girls. With 1 test pilot, 1 test in sugar and 1 test in windows. From 6 to 8 years.

My hypothesis is that girls will adapt faster to use Sugar than boys.

The result would help improve the potential problems that have graphical interfaces for Sugar.

I would like to complement this with my APP Google Summer Code

The tests were conducted on the use of basic programs such as text editor or webcam.

Using as an activity subject recopilacion games flash project huascaran www.huascaran.gob.pe could be used in the implementation of the programme.

The activity will take the recommendations of the creation of a type. Activity testing template of wiki laptop. And recommendation from Nielsen and Rubin.

The Test usability will be:

  • take a picture.
  • send a picture to friend.
  • record a video.
  • send the video.
  • search a video or picture.

About me

I am Using computers since 2000. I worked of graphic designer as well as web designer into 4 years. I konw programming languages such as PHP, Python, asp, perl, java,c.

I enter the world of free software in 2002 and belong to the association of Peruvian FOSS APESOL.

I Participated in national congresses as CONEIS 2005 and 2007 with projects cdlive with streaming multimedia and e-Procurement for Mypes.

This project is the execution of my graduate thesis at my university. I already have two and a half years on exploring the topic of usability.

I know the issue of implementation of the OLPC in Peru. Last year we made a field study in the pilot ARAHUAY for our university. The evaluation we made the with two professors of computer for children.

Now i am participate into Google Summer Code for PostNuke for App Usability & Accessability Overhaul mentored by Steffen Voß

I tried to participate in the season from openusability. I do not check the deadline was over
