The tasks you give participants during a usability test can make or break you study. Poorly written tasks lead users in the wrong direction — and leave you with findings you can't really act on.
In this course Maria Rosala, NN/G’s Director of Research, covers how to write clear, unbiased tasks that let users show you what they actually do, not what you expect them to do. Learn how to sequence tasks for any research goal, adapt them for different design stages, and evaluate whether your tasks are truly fit for purpose.
If you run usability tests — or want to start — strong task writing is one of the most important skills to develop.
