Request to Join a Focus Group for Evaluating an Online Report
We have been diligently working on making the 1863 registration of enslaved inhabitants from 14 plantations and several individual enslavers on St. Eustatius available online. Currently, we have completed the following plantations: Choice, Golden Rock, Industry, Schotsenhoek, the Farm, Williamstadt, and Fairplay. The registrations of enslaved inhabitants from individual enslavers and the remaining plantations are still pending.
Content of the report
The online report provides a snapshot from 1863 of the demographics of the enslaved population on the island of St. Eustatius around the time of Emancipation.
The online report includes the following pages:
- Home Page
- Overview: Displaying demographic details of the enslaved population in 1863 from the filtered plantations.
- Lineage: Showing the details and lineage of the person selected in the filter.
- Mother: Revealing the children of the person chosen in the "Mother" filter.
- Colophon: Providing information about the SE-ABG Alliance, the designer, and the license type.
Call for volunteers
We are actively seeking volunteers to form a focus group to test and evaluate this online report. Would you be willing to participate and take a look?
Tasks
Tester will have to perform the following tasks:
- User-Friendliness: Pay attention to the ease of use, accuracy of the site, possible errors, overall functionality, and whether the information is clear and accessible, even for people with limited technical knowledge.
- Navigation: Check if it's easy to navigate through the site. Are the menus intuitive and understandable?
- Text and Language Use: Evaluate if the text is clear and understandable, especially for people unfamiliar with technical terms or specific historical details.
- Responsiveness: Test the site on a computer or tablet to see if it responds well to different screen sizes. The report is not optimized for use on a smartphone.
- Content Accuracy: Verify if the information about the registration is coherent and accurate.
Your feedback will be invaluable in improving the online report.
