“…The initial study revealed that some of the concepts covered in the VoiceNavigator tutorial were not being transferred to actual use. We considered the work of Hakuline et al [16] which looked at the results of training users to interact with a VUI using an interactive tutor vs static web tutorial. They conducted an experiment in which each group was trained prior to using a VUI email application.…”

Voice interactions on mobile phones are most often used to augment or supplement touch based interactions for users' convenience. However, for people with limited hand dexterity caused by various forms of motor-impairments voice interactions can have a significant impact and in some cases even enable independent interaction with a mobile device for the first time. For these users, a Mobile Voice User Interface (M-VUI), which allows for completely hands-free, voice only interaction would provide a high level of accessibility and independence. Implementing such a system requires research to address long standing usability challenges introduced by voice interactions that negatively affect user experience due to difficulty learning and discovering voice commands.In this paper we address these concerns reporting on research conducted to improve the visibility and learnability of voice commands of a M-VUI application being developed on the Android platform. Our research confirmed long standing challenges with voice interactions while exploring several methods for improving the onboarding and learning experience. Based on our findings we offer a set of implications for the design of M-VUIs.

“…In the timetable domain, agent-based dialogue management approach is used to implement features such as truly mixed-initiative dialogues (Turunen et al, 2005b), and multimodal guidance to help novice users to interact with the system and bring system-initiative features to the user-initiative interface (Hakulinen et al, 2005).…”
