Sujet: [Tails-ux] SI 622: Needs assessment and usability evaluation (Winter term)
SI 622 is currently recruiting clients who would like a free,
high-quality usability assessment of their website, app, or software
product! If you would like to obtain a free, high-quality usability
assessment of your website or software product, please submit a proposal
for a SI 622 course project. If a student group chooses you as a client,
they will perform a series of usability evaluations and give you
detailed, actionable feedback on the usability of your product.

What is SI 622?

SI 622 is a master's-level human-computer interaction (HCI) course
taught at the University of Michigan School of Information. The course
is offered each year during the Winter semester from January through
April and is focused on a semester-long project: Groups of 4-5 students
select a software system or service to study and conduct a series of
formal evaluations and analyses, generating professional reports and
recommendations along the way.

Why should I suggest a project?

You should suggest an SI 622 project if you’d like to receive detailed,
objective feedback on the usability and usefulness of your product. UMSI
students are extremely talented and motivated, and they will work hard
to produce information of high value to your organization. In addition,
by working with students, you will get to know particular students you
might want to work with while also letting the larger UMSI student body
know of your organization -- UMSI graduates around 180 masters students
each year, and there is a lot of word of mouth about potential
employers. Many of our clients have hired students as part-time help
during the school year, interns over the summer, or full-time employees
after graduation. UMSI students make great employees!
