Navigating the interface
Organizing the display
Getting the user’s attention
Facilitating data entry
Principles
More fundamental, widely applicable, and enduring than guidelines
Need more clarification
1. Determine user’s skill levels
“Know thy user” Hansen (1971)
Age, gender, physical and cognitive abilities, education, cultural or ethnic background,
training, motivation, goals and personality
고려대학교 산업공학과
ISIE401 UID
Design goals based on skill level
Novice or first-time users / Knowledgeable intermittent users / Expert frequent users
Multi-layer designs
2. Identity the tasks
Task Analysis usually involve long hours observing and interviewing users
Decomposition of high level tasks
Relative task frequencies
3. Choose and interaction style
Direct manipulation / Menu selection / Form fillin / Command language /
Natural language
4. Use the eight golden rules of interface design
5. Prevent errors
better error messages – more specific, positive in tone, constructive
Correct actions
graying out inappropriate menu items, selection rather than freestyle typing,
automatic completion
Complete sequences
Single abstract commands
Macros and subroutines

6. Integrating automation while preserving human control
4.
Theories
descriptive and explanatory – developing consistent terminology for objects and actions,
collaboration and training – information scent, taxonomy
predictive – compare proposed designs for execution time or error rates
motor-task performance predictions – predicting keystroking or pointing times (Fitts’ Law)
perceptual -- predicting reading times
cognitive – problem solving and understanding productivity (RT)
1. Levels of analysis theories (Foley et al., 1995)
conceptual level; semantic level; syntactic level; lexical level
2. Seven stages of action (Norman, 1988)

contribution by placing his stages in the context of cycles of action and evaluation
gulf of execution / gulf of evaluation
four principle of good design
the state and the action alternatives should be visible
there should be a good conceptual model with a consistent system image
good mappings that reveal the relationship between stages
continuous feedback
3. GOMS and KLM (Card et al., 1983)
concentrate on expert users and error-free performance
insufficient emphasis on learning, problem solving, error handling, subjective
satisfaction and retention

3. Managing Design Process
2.
Organizational Design to Support Usability
usability engineers, user-interface architects
design (Carroll and Rosson, 1995)
design is a process
design process is nonhierarchical
the process is radically transformational
design intrinsically involves the discovery of new goals
3.
Three Pillars of Design

4. Expert Reviews, Usability Testing
1.
Introduction
the determinants of the evaluation plan
stage of design (early, middle, late)
novelty of project (well defined vs. exploratory)
number of expected users
criticality of the interface
costs of product
time available
experience of the design and evaluation team
2.
Expert Reviews
early or late in the design phase – formal report with problems or recommendations fro change
half day to one week, lengthy training period required
Heuristic evaluation / Guidelines review / Consistency inspection / Cognitive walkthrough / Formal
usability inspection
3.
Usability Testing and Laboratories
speed up projects and cost savings
controlled experiments vs. usability tests
find flaws in user interfaces, fewer subjects, output report with recommendations
task analysis detailed test plan pilot study
고려대학교 산업공학과

participants -- instructions, informed consent
effective techniques -- think aloud / videotaping / discount usability engineering / field tests
two limitations
emphasizes first-time usage, limited coverage of the interface features

Command-line vs. display editors vs. word processors
1. WYSIWYG

Video games
Computer-aided design
Office automation
Discussion of Direct Manipulation
principle of virtuality
principle of transparency
in harmony with the popular notions of logical symbolic sequential left-brain and the visual
artistic all-at-once right-brain problem-solving
breaches the gulf of execution and the gulf of evaluation
1. Problems of direct manipulation
1. not an improvement over text for blind or vision-impaired users
2. spatial or visual representations can be too spread out
3. users must learn the graphical representations – icons
4. visual representation may be misleading
5. typing commands with the keyboard may be faster
6. choosing the right objects and actions may be difficult

4.
Visual Thinking and Icons
an icon is an image, picture, or symbol representing a concept
small representations of an object or action
how to decide between icons and text, and how to design icons
four levels of icon design (Marcus, 1992)
1. Lexical qualities
2. Syntactics
3. Semantics
4. Pragmatics
5. Dynamics
3D Interfaces
the closer the interfaces are to the real world, the easier usage will be
enhanced interfaces may be better than 3D reality
a modest use of 3D technique (add highlights to 2D interfaces) enjoyable, recognizable, and
memorable with improved use of spatial memory but visually distracting and confusing with additional
visual complexity
6.
Virtual and Augmented Reality
immersive experiences, “looking at” to “being in”, telepresence aspect of virtual reality
augmented reality
multiple technologies for successful VE
visual display / head-position sensing / hand-position sensing / hand-held manipulatives
force feedback and haptics / sound input and output / other sensations / collaborative and
competitive virtual environments
