This four-week course will cover a selection of user research methods, including user interviews, observational studies, card sorting and A/B testing, that can be used to answer questions not typically answered through usability testing. In this course, you will learn the strengths and limitations of each type of study, the kinds of questions each can answer, and how to design these types of studies.

This four-week course will cover a selection of user research methods, including user interviews, observational studies, card sorting and A/B testing, that can be used to answer questions not typically answered through usability testing. In this course, you will learn the strengths and limitations of each type of study, the kinds of questions each can answer, and how to design these types of studies. You will consider good practices when interviewing and how to design and collect information through observational studies, card sorting activities, and A/B tests. We will also consider how best to follow up on what you learn through your studies in order to improve online interfaces or services.
This course can be taken as one of six courses needed to earn our Certificate in User Experience (UX), but can be taken as a stand-alone course as well.
Emily Daly currently serves as Interim Associate University Librarian (AUL) for Research and Public Services at Duke University Libraries in Durham, NC. Before beginning this role, Emily served as Interim Head of Research & Instructional Services and as Head of the Assessment & User Experience Department for 9 years. Emily finds (nearly!) all aspects of her work interesting, but she especially enjoys working with talented library colleagues; managing projects; learning more about Duke users through in-depth studies, interviews, and usability tests; mentoring graduate students and new library workers; and helping to improve usability of the Libraries’ website and physical spaces, which she’s found to be a never-ending job.
