Johdon yhteenveto
LATAAMON iPad- ja selainversio käynnistyivät elokuussa 2013. Lataamon kautta käyttäjä
saa luettavakseen pienellä kuukausimaksulla Aku Ankka-lehden täydelliset arkistot, yli
100 000 sivua digitoituja lehtiä. Sanoma Magazinen Lataamoa on kehitetty yhteistyössä Aalto
ARTSin kanssa keväästä 2013 lähtien. (Lataamo-projekti alkoi SMF:n sisällä syksyllä 2012)
Kun Aalto ARTS pääsi mukaan kehitysprojektiin, tuote oli prototyyppivaiheessa. Tässä
vaiheessa kaikkiin ratkaisuihin ei voinut enää puuttua, mutta saimme silti hyviä tuloksia kesän
aikana. Osuutemme oli kaksivaiheinen: teimme ensin heuristisen käytettävyysarvioinnin
selvittääksemme mitä mahdollisia ongelmia käyttäjät voisivat kohdata ja toiseksi teimme
käyttäjätutkimusta 200 hengen Facebook-ryhmässä 19 päivän ajan kesällä 2013. Ryhmän
tarkoituksena oli saada käyttäjiltä palautetta SMF:n esiintuomiin ja heuristisessa arvioinnissa
löytyneihin kysymyksiin äänestyksien sekä vapaamuotoisen kommentoinnin avulla.
Sami Pekkala ja Harri Heikkilä tekivät asiantuntija-arvioinnit toukokuussa 2013
rinnakkaismenetelmällä. Perustana käytettiin aiemmin NextMediassa luotua tablettijulkaisun
heuristista arviointimallia. Tärkeimmät löydökset heuristisesta arvioinnista löytyvät tästä trialdeliverabelista. Erityisesti ongelmana oli paikan taju ja navigointi, johon liittyen teimme
useita korjausehdotuksia, jotka on kuvattu ao. dioissa.

Executive Summary
LATAAMO was launched in August 2013 as an iPad-app and as a web app. Through
Lataamo, user gets access for a small monthly fee to the complete archives (some 100 000+
pages) of digitized Donald Duck magazines. Sanoma Magazine’s Lataamo has been in
collaboration with Aalto ARTS from the spring of 2013 (the Lataamo-project started in
autumn 2012).
When Lataamo and Aalto ARTS started to work together, the product was in a prototype
phase. The collaboration would have be even more beneficial, if started at earlier stage as
some decisions have been already made and implemented, but still we managed to get good
results during the spring and summer. Our part of the process consisted of two phases: first
we did a heuristic evaluation to find out possible problems future users could encounter and
secondly, we conducted a user research in Facebook with group of 200 users to elicit user
responses of the product and to build-up methods of co-creation with social media as the base
of future project. Social media -research lasted for 19 days and was conducted at summer
2013. Questions were based on preliminary findings and suggestions of SMF.
Sami Pekkala and Harri Heikkilä did an expert usability evaluation parallelly in May 2013. It
was reported to SMF using heuristics for tablet publications created in NextMedia program as
a basis for the usability problem classification. Some parts of this assessment are presented
here. Particularly an issues with the sense of place and the model for navigation was pointed
out and our suggestions for solving these are pictured in the next slides.
