Human Computer Interaction Week 6 Interaction Design Support Introduction The importance of visualization in design – considering alternatives Avoid evolutionary prototyping of the interface Creating alternatives create separate groups to work on alternatives Keep ‘idea logs’ – never lose an idea Design Rationale Supporting the Design Process The use of supporting techniques and tools Software Support for diagramming (ER/DFD editors) Discussions with the users (User Centered Design) Considering and choosing alternatives Software Support for designing and producing screen layouts, icons, etc. Supporting Designers (1) Designer experience – hire good and experienced designers Previous known solutions – use knowledge of previous projects to identify known successful solutions to similar problems Problem decomposition – decompose large problems into less complex, more well-defined subproblems Supporting Designers (2) Alternative Designs – explored and evaluated Design Simulation – prototyping Understanding the problem domain – understanding the task and the task environment Reasoning Strategy – opportunistic and evolutionary Supporting Design Teams Communication – communicate ideas The problem of communication – inadequacy of written documentation The most common form of team interaction is meeting Different kinds of support Guidance – ranging from universal design guidelines to detailed design rules Support for communicating and recording design decisions – capture ideas and explore alternatives Software support – capturing ideas, exploring alternatives, recoding decisions, translating into executable code Guidelines: Principles and Rules Principles: must be interpreted and translated into a strategy Design rules: an instruction that can be obeyed with minimal filling out and interpretation by the designer From Principles into Design Rules Care must be taken to interpret principles appropriately Be careful not to misinterpret principles e.g. Human STM 7+/- 2 is misin
