    Study Notes

    Conceptualizing Interaction in Design

    • Conceptualizing ideas is important in design projects to define the area and explore solutions.

    • It allows for a reality check and articulation of basic building blocks in developing a product from a UX perspective.

    • Research questions need to be addressed to design a product, such as how users will understand and interact with it.

    • Expressing ideas as concepts helps transform blue-sky thinking into concrete models of how a product will work.

    • Conceptualizing interaction involves being clear about underlying assumptions and claims in the design process.

    • Writing down assumptions and claims can highlight vague or problematic ones, leading to reformulation of design ideas.

    • A conceptual model is a simplified description of how a system is organized and operates, used to articulate the problem and design space in interaction design.

    • It provides a working strategy and framework of general concepts and their interrelations.

    • The core components of a conceptual model include metaphors and analogies, concepts, relationships between those concepts, and mappings between concepts and user experience.

    • Organizing these components determines the user experience the product is designed to support or invoke.

    • A conceptual model can be represented as a textual description and/or in a diagrammatic form.

    • It can be used by design teams to develop more detailed and concrete aspects of the design, leading to simpler designs that match up with users’ tasks and improved customer uptake.Conceptualizing Interaction in Design

    • Design teams can use the enumeration of concepts to debate the merits of providing different methods and how they support main concepts in web browsing.

    • The best conceptual models are often those that are intuitive to use, but sometimes applications can be based on complex models due to multiple upgrades.

    • A design concept is a set of ideas for a design, and collections of patterns are available to designers for core transactional processes in most online shopping websites.

    • The graphical desktop, digital spreadsheet, and World Wide Web are examples of conceptual models that transformed the way daily and work activities are carried out at an interface.

    • Metaphors are a central component of a conceptual model, and interface metaphors provide familiar entities that enable people to readily understand the underlying conceptual model.

    • The search engine, originally coined in the early 1990s, is a well-known interface metaphor that invites comparisons between a mechanical engine and the everyday action of looking for something.

    • Cards have become a popular interface metaphor for structuring content into meaningful chunks and presenting them in an intuitive way.

    • Interface metaphors are no longer just familiar terms to describe less familiar computer-based actions; they have become everyday terms in their own right.

    • Metaphors and analogies are an integral part of human language and are widely used in interaction design to conceptualize abstract, hard-to-imagine, and difficult-to-articulate computer-based concepts and interactions.

    • Interaction types are the ways a person interacts with a product or application and include instructing, conversing, manipulating, exploring, and responding.

    • Deciding upon which interaction types to use can help design teams work out systematically what will be the simplest and most effective way of supporting users while using a product or application.

    • The design team should consider the user's familiarity with the interaction types and the context of use when deciding which interaction types to use.

    • Designers should also consider the affordances and constraints of the interaction types and their impact on usability and user experience.Conceptualizing Interaction: Five Types of Interaction

    • Designers formulate a conceptual model before choosing an interface type, such as speech-based, gesture-based, touch-based, menu-based, etc.

    • Interaction types are distinguished from interface types.

    • Five types of interaction include instructing, conversing, manipulating, exploring, and responding.

    • Instructing involves issuing instructions to a system, which can be done through typing, selecting options, speaking, gesturing, pressing buttons, or using function keys.

    • Conversing involves having a dialogue with a system, where the system acts as a partner and responds in a human-like way.

    • Manipulating involves interacting with objects in a virtual or physical space by manipulating them, such as opening, holding, closing, and placing.

    • Exploring involves moving through a virtual or physical environment, such as 3D worlds, augmented and virtual reality systems, smart rooms, and ambient environments.

    • Responding involves the system initiating the interaction and the user choosing whether to respond.

    • Specific domain and context-based activities can be described as situated activities, organized by work, home, in town, and on the road.

    • Instructing is quick and efficient, particularly for repetitive actions.

    • Conversing allows people to interact with a system in a familiar way, but certain tasks can become cumbersome.

    • Manipulating can capitalize on users' knowledge of how they interact with physical objects, and direct manipulation interfaces provide versatility but have limitations for certain tasks.Conceptualizing Interaction: Virtual Environments, Interaction Types, Paradigms, Visions, Theories, Models, and Frameworks

    • Virtual environments are designed to allow people to move and interact in physical or digital spaces, such as virtual campuses or fantasy worlds.

    • Virtual landscapes can depict realistic or abstract representations of cities, buildings, rooms, and datasets, enabling users to fly over and zoom in/out of different parts.

    • Interaction types include system-initiated responses, where the system alerts or shows users something of interest or relevance, such as fitness trackers notifying users of milestones reached.

    • Google Lens is an example of system-initiated interaction, providing pop-up information about an image, such as identifying the breed of a dog in a photo.

    • Paradigms, visions, theories, models, and frameworks are used to inform design and guide research in interaction design.

    • A paradigm refers to a general approach adopted by a community of researchers and designers, such as the user-centered design paradigm for desktop applications.

    • Mark Weiser's vision of ubiquitous technology influenced the paradigm shift in HCI towards mobile and pervasive technologies.

    • Big Data and the IoT led to the emergence of new sensor technologies and data science algorithms for automating operations and actions.

    • Visions of the future, such as Apple's Knowledge Navigator and AI, provide a driving force for research and development in interaction design.

    • AI is replacing the user interface for an increasing number of applications, such as personal assistants choosing clothes or vacations on behalf of users.

    • The challenge is to develop transparency and accountability in AI systems, explaining the rationale behind their decisions and developing interfaces that support synergy with humans.

    • Science fiction has become a source of inspiration in interaction design, envisioning the role of technology in the future and providing a good basis for discussion and debate.
