Market Research

Rockman et al undertakes market research for both public and private organizations and institutions—both need information on how clients and consumers respond to their offerings. We have explored new markets for educational content providers, examined the content and appeal of consumer Web sites, helped an educational developer position a new product for the market, identified the use and impacts of interactive research resources, and explored children’s interests in Web content for edutainment products.

Among the methods and strategies we use are focus groups, large scale sample surveys, museum and public space intercepts, think-alouds for interactive products, interface and usability studies for Web resources, and in-depth interviews. Our designs are focused on efficient data capture and actionable reports.
