q2 · i? · design · r3

Authors' reflection on shortcomings observed during the ADR-guided development and field evaluation. The article reports that "the learning management system partly predefined the frontend structure and navigation, precluding frequent change", and that users found the visual design of the LMS interface unappealing and tedious (M = 3.08, SD 1.58).

"Therefore, IDSA usability and user-friendliness are limited by the learning management system, or in the case of a campus management system integration, by the campus management system."
