| dc.description.abstract | On realizing the significance of KOS, several efforts have been made (some ongoing) at revising the conventional Knowledge Organization (KO) tools. Some are aimed at designing new tools, while others based on Web enabled collaboration have resulted in folksonomies, and so on. Motivated by the understanding that the forgoing signifies the possibility of not only revising KO System (KOS), but improving them; this paper contributes a Measurement Model (MM) of Actionable Attributes (AA) as personas. The Web Search Engine - a manifestation of KOS - served as an example case, upon which the characteristics of Knowledge itself was explored using the User-centred (Uc) paradigm of evaluation. The Theory of Information Processing (ToIP) was drawn on and the Web analytic technique provided the empirical guide and the praxis to translate the supporting theory - ToIP - to action. The presented AA were modelled based on the experiences of users as they bother on Uc interactive software design using the exploratory factor analytic technique. The AA (as it were) would contribute to the re-engineering of end users’ needs towards better KOS. This is because the AA as personas evidently encapsulated “behavioural data” that were gathered from the empirical analysis of actual users. In future, there will be need to develop a detailed narrative of each persona and possibly select more realistic and corroborating scenarios (and photos) that will be easily translated into believable character. | en_US |
