Institute for Learning Innovation
Professional Development Seminar
June 17, 1999
"Building a Methodology to Evaluate Your Web Site"
presented by John Chadwick, Ph.D.
Senior Research Associate, Institute for Learning Innovation
We define goals and objectives that can be measured when developing
traditional museum exhibits, but in the rush towards developing
online resources, little effort has been made to understand the
behaviors of online users. As the medium of the Web matures, the need
for understanding our online visitors is becoming increasingly
important. This workshop will explore the state of current research
of online user behavior and the methodological limitations of such
research.
Dr. John Chadwick is a Senior Research Associate with the Institute
of Learning Innovation. Prior to joining the Institute, Dr. Chadwick
worked with the New Mexico Museum of Natural History and the New
Mexico Office of Cultural Affairs as a network administrator and Web
administrator. He is also the founder of Museum-L, a
cross-disciplinary internet discussion list for museum professionals.
Dr. Chadwick's dissertation was titled: "A Survey of Characteristics
and Patterns of Behavior in Visitors to a Museum Web Site."
