I’ve taught Do-it-Yourself Usability Testing for Library Juice Academy for the past four years. I’m stepping back from teaching due to other commitments, so thought it would be a good time to share my lectures publicly. These were last updated about a year ago.

Hope these prove useful even outside the context of the course. Much of the course content is also reflected in my usability testing guide from 2014. Feel free to use, adapt, and share these videos!
