Abstract

The System Usability Scale (SUS) has become an industry standard where survey participants are asked to rate ten predefined questions on the scale range of strongly agree to strongly disagree. CIRCLE (Classification, Identification, Retrieval-based Collaborative Learning Environment) is software which lets students learn and gain real time knowledge about classifying objects like plants and animals or rocks and minerals. This paper compares the results obtained by SUS surveys done on CIRCLE in its early and later versions.
