Assessment for Windows Wear by Sheridan - Module 3: Interface Structure

Submitted by madeleine.crew… on
Can the purpose of each link can be determined from the link text, or from the link text together with its surrounding context?
Answer: Always
Score: 2
Notes:
Can keyboard focus be moved to all page elements?
Answer: Sometimes
Score: 1
Notes: it's hard to tell that this is being done. When you are tabbing through the database, none of the elements indicate which section your keyboard is on. This is problematic.
If moving keyboard focus away from a component requires more than arrow or tab keys, is this clearly indicated on the page?
Answer: Never
Score: 0
Notes:
Is default keyboard navigation order logical and intuitive, following the visual flow of the page as described above?
Answer: Sometimes
Score: 1
Notes: Again, only giving this sometimes because I think it does but you can't tell where you are on the page while using a keyboard.
When using a keyboard to navigate the interface, is the keyboard focus indicator visible?
Answer: Never
Score: 0
Notes: No and this is very frustrating.
Does all interactive functionality work via keyboard, and does it behave consistently and as expected?
Answer: Always
Score: 2
Notes:
Does focus order move sequentially across form fields?
Answer: Sometimes
Score: 1

Answer: Never
Score: 0
Notes:

Score: 2
Notes:
When navigating the page using keyboard navigation, is the user able to navigate effectively from one frame to the next?
Answer: Sometimes
Score: 1
Notes: Again, it's hard to tell which section you are on when doing keyboard navigation because the section doesn't light up.
