Developing and testing for usability within a low resource context An action case study of the School report card in the Gambia

The Gambian Ministry of Basic and Secondary Education (MoBSE) has a goal of making decision-making more data-driven at all levels of the education hierarchy. One of their measures to achieve this goal is the social accountability tool; the School report card. The aim of this project was to migrate technologies from MS Access and MS Excel to a third party web application within the DHIS2 platform. The findings of this thesis indicate that remote usability testing is achievable even without visiting the context where the system will be used.
