This article presents an evaluation of Business Law 2D Animation: Elements of a Valid Contract. The developed application was produced to assist business law students to understand the contents of the topic Elements of a Valid Contract. An experiment was carried out to assess the usability of the application as a learning and review material for business law students. This study comprised five major evaluation components, including learnability, usability, accessibility, functionality, and effectiveness, to investigate user involvement and satisfaction with the proposed educational learning system. To acquire user testing results, online questionnaires were issued. There was a total of 63 respondents, including multimedia experts, students, and subject matter experts. The findings of the current study revealed that the majority of respondents were pleased with the outcomes of the animation. The results may assist in improving the teaching of the topic Elements of a Valid Contract for business law students as it provides visually appealing method of learning.

“…This is what guides the data collection process. Several metrics were employed in the articles investigated; these metrics are measured by different criteria [12]. Some studies used standard usability metrics such as effectiveness and efficiency, while some studies devised metrics according to the intention of their study.…”

Usability of websites has been studied severally in a general term in different sectors such as entertainment, social media and e-commerce. Higher education is a sector that needs more attention because Universities are very important in the society and their websites hold important information for prospective students, parents, faculty, students of the university and the public. Several literature reviews have been conducted on website usability evaluation, not many have focused on University website usability evaluation. Existing reviews of University website usability evaluation have based their review on certain aspect of usability evaluation such as the methods used. The objective of this study is to carry out a systematic literature review of recent studies in this area in order to provide insight for University website developer, usability researchers and higher academic institutions in all. This study focuses on researches conducted on University website usability evaluation from 2016 to 2021. Findings from this study include additional information different from existing literature review, such as, objectives of researches, common usability attributes used by usability researchers, methods of data collection and analysis, changes in data collection due to Covid-19 pandemic and the types of usability problems found. The commonly mentioned usability problems are problems related to interface design, content, navigation, performance and accessibility.

“…If the 'contextual fidelity model' describes the four major independent factors that affect user experience, and the activity theory sees their interaction as crucial, the dependent (or target) variables in the DUXU studies describe efficiency evaluation, both objective (user performance in objective measurements [25,55]) and subjective (users' levels of satisfaction, pleasure, and/or perceived efficiency [56][57][58]). These two aspects do not always correspond to each other and need to be measured in combinations in order to assess the true quality of user experience.…”

The study examines the cumulative impact of factors that affect usability testing for user-centered web design, namely the so-called ‘contextual fidelity model’ factors that include product properties, task features, user traits, and environment/context factors. Today, the design, user experience and usability (DUXU) research experiences a lack of studies that would assess combinatorial, rather than individual, effects of these factors upon user performance. We address this gap by seeing both independent factors and the resulting user states as complex and dynamic, and testing the combined impact of aesthetic quality of websites, user traits, and individual/group experiment settings upon formation of two dysfunctional user states that critically affect user performance, namely monotony and anxiety. We develop a research design that allows for assessing the combinatorial effects in formation of user dysfunctionality. For that, we conduct a study with 80 assessors of Russian/European and Chinese origin in individual/group setting, employing two types of tasks and websites of high/low aesthetic quality. As the results of our experiment show, group task solving enhances the synchronous impact of website aesthetics and task features upon user states. Interaction of high-quality design, group environment, and monotonous tasks provides for an antagonistic effect when aesthetic layout in a group environment significantly reduces the fatigue rate. Low aesthetic quality in a group environment leads to cumulative enhancing of dysfunctionality for both monotony and anxiety. We conclude by setting questions and prospects for further research.
