What’s an appropriate UI for verifying a list of words? Where is the balance between speed and accuracy?

Ideation

Using a set of words for colours in Spanish, translated through Google Translate, we prototyped our ideas. After some talking and sketching, we had some good insights and the ability to make some early decisions.

A/B Testing Layouts

After some initial HTML wireframes, we landed on two different layouts. We wanted to see which one was optimal for speed and accuracy. Speed being how many words a person can “verify” per second. Accuracy being how many words they verified correctly.

Setting the complications of language aside, here’s what we learned about our first interface ideas. Although, the patterns of commonly missed words prompted some great new ideas.

But first… please take a moment — can get 90% or higher in under 30 seconds?
