Modeling clothing. Software. Usability. Usability Testing.
In the academic field of Fashion Design courses Technician Clothing and Textile
Engineering, the CAD (Computer Aid Design) is used in the teaching of computer
modeling clothing. Thus, the proposed study aims to evaluate the usability of Audaces
software templates in perspectiva students of the Federal Institute of Rio Grande do
Norte (IFRN) Caico campus. For the realization of the research, we used two valuation
techniques: the Usability Testing where participants were observed interacting with the
software while doing a task and the questionnaire of interaction that addressed factors
for analysis as the software screen; the terminology and information; the learnability;
the software capability and user satisfaction. The evaluation was applied with ninet een
students of the Technical Course in Clothing, users of the software. The results showed
some problems that prevented the correct completion of the proposed task. After
identifying the problems identified by users were improvement suggestions to facilit ate
student interaction with the system. Finally, it is believed that in general, the Audaces
Molds system meets the needs of its users regarding the usability of such software.
