Abstract

Cross reality laboratories are widely used in education, yet research on the usability/user experience (UX) of these laboratories is still lacking. This study wants to start the discussion about challenges for usability/UX by interviewing practitioners from a large project for cross reality laboratories spanning multiple institutes in Germany. A total of 18 challenges were discovered, together with three target groups, namely, developers, maintainers, and learners. In addition, the tension between developers and usability is discussed. Open questions include the need to conduct further research with different target groups and how to increase usability for laboratory developers.

创作者在跨现实实验室中遇到的可用性和用户体验挑战

跨现实实验室在教育领域得到了广泛应用，但有关这些实验室的可用性/用户体验（UX）的研究却仍然缺乏。本研究希望通过采访德国多个机构的跨现实实验室大型项目的从业人员，开始讨论可用性/用户体验所面临的挑战。共发现了 18 项挑战，以及三个目标群体，即开发者、维护者和学习者。此外，还讨论了开发人员与可用性之间的矛盾。有待解决的问题包括：是否有必要针对不同的目标群体开展进一步研究，以及如何提高实验室开发人员的可用性。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
