Web Application Prototype : State-of-art Survey Evaluation

Human Computer Interactivity plays a vital role in a web application's success. A survey evaluation was undertaken of a web application prototype named "My Portfolio", directed towards the students of different universities. The aim of the survey was to find the shortcomings in the interface design, whether it followed the design principles and if the web application is user-friendly. A questionnaire, consisting of 16 questions was distributed among the students. The questions were made after studying some basic Human Computer Interaction design principles. The overall assessment of the web application was very positive and some evaluators mentioned that they liked the simplicity and color scheme of the application. We summarize the findings of our study and discuss the issues that need to be resolved in the next prototype.
