For the Mill Valley Pasta Co. elearning course, I conducted a usability test to ensure the training would be both accessible and user-friendly for the intended learners. The test, which a peer helped me to complete, focused on evaluating the ease of navigation, effectiveness of instructional strategies, and overall user experience, with special attention given to how well the content—including assessments and the social presence of the virtual guide, Tim— supported learner engagement and understanding. The feedback I received was crucial for refining the course—making adjustments to enhance accessibility, improving navigation, and ensuring that assessments functioned as intended.
