Company overview
Research Process
My research process is engaged with stakeholders at each step of the research journey. From consultation to final recommendations, the user is the center of my process.
-
After developing a research proposal, we began the project by bringing together stakeholders at TeacherBuilt and finding out what their vision and goals are at this point in their development process.
-
After researching the website, evaluating competitors, and meeting with TeacherBuilt developers, I proposed a three-part study which would identify 1) overall user satisfaction, 2) specific pain points, and 3) user goals.
-
The following three studies will take place August 2025 to meet the research goals:
System Usability Scale Survey
Unmoderated usability study
Focus group
-
After each study, I will analyze the data to find out what users want and what roadblocks they are encountering.
SUS data score calculation will show overall usability.
Unmoderated usability study data analysis via consolidation and coding will identify specific pain points.
Focus group data analysis through consolidation and coding will illuminate user perceptions and goal.
-
Observations and insights will be conveyed to TeacherBuilt team in both a written report and visual presentation.
-
Based on the study results, strategic recommendations will be submitted to the TeacherBuilt development team. These recommendations will align with each research goal.
