WGU D292 TASK 4: USABILITY TEST FINAL
TEST 2026 QUESTIONS WITH CORRECT
ANSWERS GRADED A+
◍ A program director gathered data on how frequently instructors engaged
with students on discussion boards. Which learning analytics technique
should be used to analyze this data?.
Answer: Quantitative Analysis
◍ Students in a second-grade class are learning how to tell time. The learning
objective of a lesson is "Students will be able to identify the correct time on
an analog clock." At the end of the lesson, a teacher distributes a scaled
survey to the students so they can self-assess their confidence in reading an
analog clock. Why does this indirect assessment method align with the
learning objective?.
Answer: Because it allows the teacher to gather information on the students'
perceptions about their own learning
◍ What is the bias issue in this item?.
Answer: The content relies on language suited to specific interests and
experiences.
◍ Perceivable-.
Answer: means the user can identify content and interface elements by
means of the senses. For many users, this means perceiving a system
primarily visually, while for others, perceivability may be a matter of sound
or touch.
◍ Which high-level principle of functional accessibility is a concern in this
assessment?.
Answer: operable
,◍ An instructor for a course populated by multiple Hard of Hearing/Deaf
learners is providing assignment feedback. What should the instructor avoid
under these circumstances when delivering in-depth feedback?-.
Answer: the use of any audio
◍ What is A/B testing?.
Answer: Comparing two versions of a design to determine which version
will accomplish goal more effectively. Best for detecting small differences
between 2 (or more) designs. To minimize bias, show each version to a
different set of users.
◍ The teacher has gathered the learning data of a fifth-grade world history
class throughout an entire school year. The school seeks a 10 percent
improvement in student learning and wants to use the data from this year as
a benchmark for comparison to students who take history next year. The
school principal has asked the teacher to use the data to establish learning
growth benchmarks based on the current year's data. To establish the desired
benchmark, _____________ analytics should be used..
Answer: Descriptive
◍ From where does the Automatic Workflow Analyzer pull usage data from?.
Answer: It pulls usage data directly out of the User Action Log (UAL)
◍ A state board of education requires that all schools in the state determine the
languages spoken in student homes to identify their language needs. In one
elementary school, data from a "Home Language Survey" indicate that 11%
of students speak a language other than English in their homes. The school's
principal asks an English language teaching specialist to administer an
English language proficiency (ELP) assessment to determine whether these
students are eligible for language support services in school.Did the
principal fulfill the ethical obligation to act on the knowledge about students
that was gained through the initial survey?.
Answer: Yes, the principal attempted to gather additional information to
understand the students' specific needs.
,◍ A learning goal for a group of kindergarten students is "Students will be
able to differentiate how objects are alike and different." A teacher provides
each student with a sorting mat and a bag filled with tiles in a variety of
colors. The teacher asks students to sort the tiles by color on their mats.Why
does this performance-based assessment align with the learning goal and the
Analyze level of the revised Bloom's taxonomy?".
Answer: Because students demonstrate their ability to distinguish attributes
of tiles
◍ Which high-level principle of functional accessibility is missing in this
course site?.
Answer: robust
◍ What are two components of user research?.
Answer: User interviewsUser observation
◍ What is a construct-validity bias issue with this plan?.
Answer: It has not been determined that the created assessments measure the
students' knowledge of the objectives.
◍ Which data is entered manually and optional?.
Answer: Value and ease of step.
◍ T/F: You should ask participants directly about how they completed the
task.
Answer: False. Include these questions in the guide for the facilitator to
answer and take notes on.
◍ What is learning analytics.
Answer: the measurement, collection, analysis, and reporting of data about
learners and their contexts, for purposes of understanding and optimizing
learning and the environments in which it occurs.DataAnalysisAction
◍ What are some different ways to make a prototype?.
Answer: Microsoft PaintMicrosoft Excel (can be used for task-based
workflow study)Paper Prototype (can be used for card sorting)
, ◍ What is usability?.
Answer: The extent to which a product can be used by specified users to
achieve specified goals with effectiveness, efficiency, and satisfaction in a
specified context of use. REDUCE FRICTION between user and ability to
accomplish tasks with efficiency and satisfaction.
◍ What should your facilitator guide include?.
Answer: Any steps the facilitator must complete before the study (i.e. patient
preparation steps and special information the facilitator needs to
know)Access and login informationIntroductory questions and demographic
information to askONE TASK PER PAGE, which includes:Task context
(verifies they are in the right place)Notes and observations (include task
questions here, leave room for notes, and include screenshots to so
facilitator can follow along and understand workflow)When the task is
complete (include screenshots/ a description)Before the next task
(preparation steps before the next task [if applicable])Debrief
questionsQuestions for facilitator (anything you would want reported from
facilitator)Clean-up tasks for facilitator (i.e., deleting flowsheet values,
closing without saving)
◍ In an introduction to programming course, students analyze the structure and
components of a program. The learning objective is "Create a simple
program." Which direct assessment method would determine whether
students have met this objective?.
Answer: Developing program code
◍ T/F: You need to complete a build in order to test its efficacy..
Answer: False. You can use prototypes to test efficacy.
◍ With Modeling Workflow Analyzer tool, what is important to match?.
Answer: Workflow and Task columns must match so that analytical and
aggregation aspects of the tool work. This is to ensure it is comparing apples
to apples.
◍ Which statement is an example of an unethical practice that might occur
when analyzing data about student pass/fail rates?-.
