Attached is a draft of my instruction project. My usability questions are as follows: 1. Were you able to effectively perform this task? 2. Do you feel that the pictures were helpful? 3. What, if anything, would you change about the pictures? 4. Were any of the steps unclear? 5. Any other suggestions about the layout?

Attached to this post are three files. 1. My usability questionnaire 2. My introduction (parts list, required tools, etc.) 3. My assembly instructions

Please use the questionnaire to give me feedback. The "Intro" file is rough, so feel free to help me improve the design of it.

Attached is a draft of my instruction manual.

Some questions that I'd like answered are:

1.) I provide a description and image to help clarify many topics. Are there areas that need an image or better descriptions? Do I need to use examples of my descriptions?

2.) Did you feel like the manual followed a proper logic in the format and presentation of information? Where could it use improvement? What can I change?

3.) The pawn is kind of a tricky unit to explain, how did you feel after reading that section? Anything I can improve on?

Attached below are my usability questions and my How-To guide. Thank you.

Hi -

I attached my instruction manual for review. Some of the usability questions I would like answered are below:

1. How do the pictures help in your understanding of the instructions? Should they be altered in some way, if so, how?

2. Are the sizes of the pictures appropriate? Should any be smaller/bigger?

3. Are there pictures you feel that were missing/ could be included to make understanding easier? If so, what were they?
