Book Synopsis Beyond the Usability Lab by : Bill Albert
Download or read book Beyond the Usability Lab written by Bill Albert and published by Morgan Kaufmann. This book was released on 2009-12-21 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Usability testing and user experience research typically take place in a controlled lab with small groups. While this type of testing is essential to user experience design, more companies are also looking to test large sample sizes to be able compare data according to specific user populations and see how their experiences differ across user groups. But few usability professionals have experience in setting up these studies, analyzing the data, and presenting it in effective ways. Online usability testing offers the solution by allowing testers to elicit feedback simultaneously from 1,000s of users. Beyond the Usability Lab offers tried and tested methodologies for conducting online usability studies. It gives practitioners the guidance they need to collect a wealth of data through cost-effective, efficient, and reliable practices. The reader will develop a solid understanding of the capabilities of online usability testing, when it's appropriate to use and not use, and will learn about the various types of online usability testing techniques. - The first guide for conducting large-scale user experience research using the internet - Presents how-to conduct online tests with 1000s of participants – from start to finish - Outlines essential tips for online studies to ensure cost-efficient and reliable results
Book Synopsis Into the Wild: Beyond the Design Research Lab by : Alan Chamberlain
Download or read book Into the Wild: Beyond the Design Research Lab written by Alan Chamberlain and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-07-03 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited collection opens up new intellectual territories and articulates the ways in which academics are theorising and practicing new forms of research in ‘wild’ contexts. Many researchers are choosing to leave the familiarity of their laboratory-based settings in order to pursue in-situ studies ‘in the wild’ that can help them to better understand the implications of their work in real-world settings. This has naturally led to ethical, philosophical and practical reappraisals with regard to the taken for granted lab-based modus operandi of scientific, cultural and design-based ways of working. This evolving movement has led to a series of critical debates opening up around the nature of research in the wild, but up until now these debates have not been drawn together in a coherent way that could be useful in an academic context. The book brings together applied, methodological and theoretical perspectives relating to this subject area, and provides a platform and a source of reference material for researchers, students and academics to base their work on. Cutting across multiple disciplines relating to philosophy, sociology, ethnography, design, human–computer interaction, science, history and critical theory, this timely collection appeals to a broad range of academics in varying fields of research.
Book Synopsis Outside the Research Lab, Volume 3 by : Sharon Ann Holgate
Download or read book Outside the Research Lab, Volume 3 written by Sharon Ann Holgate and published by . This book was released on 2019-07-29 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When you hear about the latest physics breakthroughs on the news, or attend university or college physics courses, it can be easy to think of physics as just an academic subject. But physics does much more than describe how matter and energy behave. It reveals how almost everything around us and, even, within us works. In fact, physics-based technologies are integral to many of the work and leisure activities we carry out everyday without giving science a second thought. This book explores the use of physics in various sports, and how professional athletes, coaches and amateurs in different sports use physics, and physics-based technologies, to participate in that sport and raise their performance levels as high as possible.
Book Synopsis The New Celebrity Scientists by : Declan Fahy
Download or read book The New Celebrity Scientists written by Declan Fahy and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2015-03-06 with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new cultural icon strode the world stage at the turn of the twenty-first century: the celebrity scientist, as comfortable in Vanity Fair and Vogue as Smithsonian. Declan Fahy profiles eight of these eloquent, controversial, and compelling sellers of science to investigate how they achieved celebrity in the United States and internationally—and explores how their ideas influence our understanding of the world. Fahy traces the career trajectories of Richard Dawkins, Stephen Hawking, Steven Pinker, Neil deGrasse Tyson, Brian Greene, Stephen Jay Gould, Susan Greenfield, and James Lovelock. He demonstrates how each scientist embraced the power of promotion and popularization to stimulate thinking, impact policy, influence research, drive controversies, and mobilize social movements. He also considers critical claims that they speak beyond their expertise and for personal gain. The result is a fascinating look into how celebrity scientists help determine what it means to be human, the nature of reality, and how to prepare for society’s uncertain future.

Book Synopsis Fraud in the Lab by : Nicolas Chevassus-au-Louis
Download or read book Fraud in the Lab written by Nicolas Chevassus-au-Louis and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2019-08-13 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From a journalist and former lab researcher, a penetrating investigation of the explosion in cases of scientific fraud and the factors behind it. In the 1970s, a scientific scandal about painted mice hit the headlines. A cancer researcher was found to have deliberately falsified his experiments by coloring transplanted mouse skin with ink. This widely publicized case of scientific misconduct marked the beginning of an epidemic of fraud that plagues the scientific community today. From manipulated results and made-up data to retouched illustrations and plagiarism, cases of scientific fraud have skyrocketed in the past two decades, especially in the biomedical sciences. Fraud in the Lab examines cases of scientific misconduct around the world and asks why this behavior is so pervasive. Nicolas Chevassus-au-Louis points to large-scale trends that have led to an environment of heightened competition, extreme self-interest, and emphasis on short-term payoffs. Because of the move toward highly specialized research, fewer experts are qualified to verify experimental findings. And the pace of journal publishing has exacerbated the scientific rewards system—publish or perish holds sway more than ever. Even when instances of misconduct are discovered, researchers often face few consequences, and falsified data may continue to circulate after an article has been retracted. Sharp and damning, this exposé details the circumstances that have allowed scientific standards to decline. Fraud in the Lab reveals the intense social pressures that lead to fraud, documents the lasting impact it has had on the scientific community, and highlights recent initiatives and proposals to reduce the extent of misconduct in the future.
