“…For example, panel position and menu structure were primarily studied in desktop context. As indicated by previous studies, a suitable menu position, such as left panel design (Torun and Altun 2014) and placement of well-designed intra-article navigation schemes (Cuddihy and Spyridakis 2012), could help in improving web navigation performance in terms of recall and retention. Besides, menu structure also matters.…”

Mobile devices are becoming ubiquitous among older adults, but have also caused unprecedented challenges due to the high demands of interaction techniques and changeable design patterns found across various applications.This paper aims to investigate how older adults navigate with mobile interfaces and identify their potential usability challenges while navigating. To do so, we summarised six state-of-the-art mobile interface design patterns and conducted individual usability test and in-depth interview with 22 older adults. Participants were asked to perform 19 navigation tasks that containing these design patterns under realistic usage scenarios. Follow-up interviews were held to collect their detailed comments on usability issues regarding visual design, ease of understanding, and interaction and navigation of the design patterns, as well as their personal experience. The results found that overall older adults were able to navigate using contents more effectively than menus and buttons. Participants experienced great challenges in directing their attention to the menus and buttons, understanding the meaning of icons, and interacting with these menu components. In contrast, the content-oriented navigation design performed better in understanding, navigation, and interaction, which could be a promising direction for elderly-friendly mobile application design. Design implications are further discussed for creating an elderly-friendly mobile interface.

“…These challenges caused navigation problems but especially increased cognitive load for the human cognitive system (Altun, 2000). There is a significant effect of navigation design types on recall and retention in e-learning environments (Dikbas Torun & Altun, 2014). Therefore, this study indicated that it is important to fix these various navigation problems before implementation.…”

Health-related internet sources should contain accurate, reliable and updated information, and their usability should be high to enable people to navigate successfully. This study aimed to develop interactive Online Infertility Prevention Training (OIPT) and to reveal design principles by evaluating the online training. The development, design, and redesign processes of this study included four iterations: 1) needs analysis, 2) implementation as a usability test, 3) implementation with the target group in a class, and 4) comparison of iteration II and III, and decision; and two outputs. The research process included the participation of the target audience in the design process and there were continuous corrections to the design. In the study, a design-based research approach was used. In the qualitative dimension, the data was collected with "User Information Form", "System Usability Observation Form", and the system usability interview form, and task cards. In the quantitative dimension, Infertility Knowledge Test, System Usability Scale, and also database records were used. The data obtained from tools were analyzed descriptively and predictively. As a result, this research claimed that design, development, and evaluation belong to health-related sources on the Internet should include field design principles and techniques and specific methods, although designers use prevalent techniques. The results indicated that gender's effect on media and material design, the importance of the use of expert authority in the presentation of content knowledge that system usability significantly increased from iteration two to three. Therefore, gender differences in media and material preferences except for content knowledge and also expert views may be considered in the design of health-related online training. In addition, while teaching concrete parts of the human body, interactive animations and visuals may be useful to motivate and increase engagement students to use the content again and again. Furthermore, the results of this study show that feedback design is crucial in the navigation of online learning environments. Overall, this study strengthens the idea that while designing online education environments, it is important to determine users' needs and expectations at first, afterwards conducting usability tests to specify the design challenges.

Abstract-Learning engagement has been a significant field of research during the past decades, especially in terms of e-learning. Personalisation, search, and navigational methods have been reported as potential approaches to supporting learners on e-learning platforms. In this review, we discuss previous research on the above-mentioned fields and recent results that e-learner providers can benefit from.
