“…The D2L platform was not perceived as user-friendly, despite its wide use in higher education. The results contrast previous studies that found D2L to be user-friendly and intuitive to use in a tailored academic environment (Alhadreti, 2020; Rucker & Frass, 2017). The primary difference concerns our cohort (older adults, lower levels of education, less exposure to technology, and more clinical issues).…”

Mindfulness is promising for individuals with neurological disorders and their caregivers to improve psychological well-being. The potential application of a Langerian mindfulness intervention, focused on attention to variability, however, is still unknown. The objective of the study was to determine the feasibility (usability, satisfaction, and potential effectiveness on psychological well-being) of an online mindfulness intervention for stroke survivors and caregivers. Using mixed methods, 11 stroke survivors and three caregivers participated in a 3-week, online, Langerian mindfulness intervention. A semi-structured interview assessed the intervention’s usability and gathered feedback. Self-reported measures about psychological well-being were documented remotely 3 times (preintervention, postintervention, and 1-month follow-up). Qualitatively, participants were highly satisfied with the intervention and reported subjective benefits, but the usability of the online platform was poor. None of the self-reported measures changed over time. This study provided evidence of feasibility of an online Langerian mindfulness intervention in a new population: stroke survivors and caregivers.

“…E-learning has many obvious advantages over traditional learning forms, not least its applicability at any time and in any place. Furthermore, it presents a wealth of opportunities for novel educational approaches and establishes settings, which allow students to be active participants in their learning, to achieve independence, to become self-reflective, and work collaboratively with others (Alhadreti, 2020).…”

“…Em Alhadreti (2020), os autores comparam experimentalmente a usabilidade do Blackboard (BB) e do Desire2Learn (D2L), usados na Universidade Umm Al-Qura, no Reino da Arábia Saudita. A comparação envolveu os seguintes critérios: a quantidade e a qualidade dos problemas de usabilidade descobertos, a eficácia dos sistemas, bem como a eficiência deles e a satisfação dos usuários.…”

“…A comparação dos trabalhos destaca que, em Alturki et al (2016) e Gumasing et al (2022), os resultados foram encontrados a partir de análises quantitativas dos dados. Em Ahmad et al (2018), Alhadreti (2020), Andrews-Todd et al (2013), Grossi et al (2018) e Chen et al (2021), os resultados foram caracterizados por análises qualitativas, que trazem estratégias de melhorias para as plataformas estudadas, ou em apontamentos de recursos que são eficientes ou não.…”

Para amparar o processo de ensino-aprendizagem, as instituições de ensino devem avaliar cuidadosamente a usabilidade de seus Ambientes Virtuais de Aprendizagem (Learning Management Systems - LMS), antes de entregá-los a professores e alunos. Este artigo apresenta o processo e os resultados das avaliações de usabilidade em atividades de ensino-aprendizagem apoiadas pelos LMS Canvas e Blackboard em uma universidade brasileira. A metodologia considerou testes com usuários para avaliar cinco atributos de usabilidade nos sistemas. Além disso, especialistas em usabilidade realizaram inspeções de usabilidade para analisar problemas e possíveis soluções. Os resultados indicaram que ambas as plataformas apresentam graves problemas de usabilidade. Em termos de comparações entre os dois sistemas LMS, os resultados não mostraram uma disparidade significativa de usabilidade entre eles. Como resultado, também apontamos os principais problemas e soluções dos LMS.
