The purpose of this paper is to describe a designer’s exploratory use of an e-learning usability evaluation heuristic in the beginning processes of designing and developing a nuclear math and theory online learning environment (OLE). A team consisting of a designer-developer and three evaluators provided feedback through an e-learning usability heuristic, expert background and experience, and/or visual design experience. Strengths and weaknesses of the process as well as the instrument are described and recommendations for the instrument and future heuristic evaluations are provided.
