The Utilization of the iOS Platform to Create LearnENT: An Interactive Educational App in Otolaryngology—Head and Neck Surgery
Table 2
LearnENT’s approach to Nielsen’s attributes of learnability.
Learnability & Memorability
Our UI is unique but acts similarly to iOS’ standard UI, making it immediately familiar. All custom elements are introduced and explained the first time the user encounters them.
Efficiency
All features can be accessed from the home page. Each module can be done a few minutes at a time w/o losing the user's progress.
Errors
Auto-save & auto-backup (through iTunes/iCloud). Undo/Redo capability when entering text.
Satisfaction
LearnENT is a living entity. Feedback received through in-app evaluation and reviews will be used for improving the app (free updates).
