Card sorting e teste de performance: Técnicas para compreender e avaliar o entendimento da informação pelo usuário.

The goal of this paper is to highlight the benefits of applying card sorting techniques and performance testing for improve digital products. A case study was developed at the Federal University of Amazonas (UFAM) with the creation of the monitoring module in the campus system, aka ecampus. This study was directed with support of the project E methodology (MEURER and SZABLUK, 2012), that was divided in four steps: (1) strategy, (2) scope, structure and skeleton, (3) aesthetics and (4) execution. As result we had a better understanding about the needs of users utilizing classification and labeling. This information allowed us to create a better user experience: a interface that communicates with effectiveness, efficiency and satisfaction. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
