“…From various usability evaluation studies, the overall usability aspect differs for each study, where each brings a refreshing perspective of its' own. Usability is a particular attribute that influences the software system's consistency and should satisfy user requirements [15]. It complements user experience as usability focuses on the functional part while user experience is emphasized on the emotions stemmed from the aspects of the product, as explained in [16].…”

<p class="0abstract">Usability evaluation is an essential activity to contribute to a higher standard of user experience. This study conducted a usability evaluation on multi-platform application according to usability attributes as defined in ISO 9241-11 standard which are efficiency, effectiveness, and satisfaction. The evaluation was conducted on both platforms; web and mobile application and involved 50 participants. The results discovered some points to usability issues. Therefore, to further enhance the users’ satisfaction, efficiency, and effectiveness, a set of improvement recommendations were proposed. Insights from this study provides a standard basis on the usability evaluation procedure which can serve as a guide for the usability evaluation of multi-platform applications.</p>

“…Usability assessment has been conducted in various aspects such as counseling [32], education [20,21,23,24,25,33], shopping [16,17], tourism [18], Web portal [15,19], and visual impairment study [24]. However, minimal pet-related studies concentrated on evaluating the usability in the multi-platform context.…”

Based on the value given by the evaluator, global usability can be calculated using (1), where PU: usability procentage (%), nec: number of criteria evaluated (maximum number is 83, but not all of them are used depending on the type of website), sv: Sirius value (value of evaluator), wc: weighting coefficient (weighting for criteria calculated using (2).

Anapedia is a web-based encyclopedia designed specifically for children. The web was built because there are still very few Indonesian-language encyclopedias for children. This paper presents an evaluation of the usability of the Anapedia website developed for children in Indonesia to retrieve information available in a wide range of areas. In the context of usability evaluation of children encyclopedia, this is the first study to analyze usability problems identified by experts during the heuristic inspection on their overall evaluation score. This evaluation, performed by seven usability experts, involved the identification and analysis of usability problems in the selected website. The assessment process was mainly based on the Sirius framework evaluation mechanism. The web considered as having high usability level, but they identified many usability problems for further improvement of the site. The most violated heuristic item was found to be "help" whereas the least violated heuristic item was "labelling" aspect.

“…ISO 9241-11 prescribes the following usability measures: a) Effectiveness, related to users' ability to complete tasks using the system and the quality of the outcome of those tasks, b) Efficiency, the uses, and interactions for task completion, and c) Satisfaction, users' personal reactions to using the system [16]. There are theoretical approaches on proposals to evaluate the usability of gamified platforms [17], [18], [19] based on a model of student interaction with the content in a playful way, as well as the evaluation of the preferences of the usability variables in the e-learning system based on the students' perspectives [20], as well as Nielsen's model to evaluate learning, efficiency, memorability, error, satisfaction and navigation; which proved to be effective and efficient [21].…”

Online learning offers opportunities responding to their different individual and group learning needs by leaving digital traces that allow tracking their experiences at the user level. This study aims to examine the perceived usability of the gamified educational platform called (ELORS) in relation to online behaviour. As well as analyse the clustering models in terms of their high and low level of engagement through their interaction metrics. A quantitative, descriptive correlational approach and an educational data analysis design was adopted through the K-means algorithm. The participants were 51 students in mathematics in the second year of secondary education. An instrument was used to evaluate usability and behavioural metrics, analysing 1065 interactions with 57 activities. The results showed advantages in usability and grouping. The level of usability achieved depends on the interaction of the users with the different learning objects and their moderate relationship in their interactions. In relation to the centroids, two groups are evidenced by number of attempts and interactions, identifying students with low levels of participation in the minority. A significant finding is given in relation to the preference of redeeming virtual values in gold from the diamonds collected. The perspective of the analysis allows identifying the potential of the gamified platform to work online in the formation of mathematical competence according to the current educational curriculum.
