Interactive Heuristic Evaluation Toolkit

A 'heuristic' is a guideline which is used when conducting a usability evaluation (or 'heuristic evaluation').

This interactive toolkit enables you to do either of the following:
a) view a list of the suggested heuristics for a particular type of electronic device, or
b) select your own heuristics for a type of device and then compare your selections against a list of suggested heuristics.

Please follow the three steps below:

1. Select a type of device for which to study evaluation heuristics (roll over the options with the mouse to see a description)

2. If you need to consider any specific type of user or specific application area, please select the appropriate options below:

3. Either:	look at the suggested heuristics for this device, or
	try selecting your own heuristics for this device.
