Usability testing for continuous improvement: An ongoing project inspired by instructional design. Librarians at University of Wisconsin-Green Bay are conducting regular usability testing to evaluate and improve their discovery system, with a focus on meaningful participant prompts inspired by a backward design model. Learn how they developed a process that is easily repeatable and produces actionable results.

• At the end of this session, participants will be able to identify the basic components of a discount usability testing plan.

• At the end of this session, participants will be able to apply backward design principles to usability testing.

• At the end of this session, participants will be able to recognize the benefits of repeated usability testing.
