Study Notes

Chapter 11: Discovering Requirements

  • Discovering requirements involves exploring the problem space and defining what will be developed.
  • This includes understanding users, their capabilities, product constraints, and use contexts.
  • Requirements are important to understanding what needs to be built.
  • Requirements development is iterative.
  • Different forms of requirements (functional, data, environmental, user, usability, user experience)
  • Several methods for capturing requirements (user stories, user need statements, atomic requirements shells, etc.)

Chapter 12: Design, Prototyping, and Construction

  • Design, prototyping, and construction are within the "Develop" phase of the design process.
  • Prototyping allows for evaluation and iteration.
  • There are two facets of design: conceptual (ideas) and concrete (details).
  • Prototyping facilitates communication between team members and stakeholders.
  • Prototyping is used to evaluate ideas and decisions, test assumptions, and explore design options.
  • Variety of prototyping techniques (low-fidelity, high-fidelity, wizard-of-oz, paper, physical, digital, etc.).
  • Co-design, participatory design, and community-based design approaches enhance stakeholder participation.

Chapter 13: Interaction Design in Practice

  • (No specific information extracted for this chapter)

Chapter 14: Introducing Evaluation

  • Evaluation is integral to the design process; it helps to collect and analyze data about users' experiences with a system.
  • Evaluation can be done at different phases of the product development lifecycle.
  • Different types of evaluations (formative and summative), and various evaluation methods
  • Conducting evaluations in various settings (labs, natural environments, and remotely).
  • Ethical considerations (informed consent, data privacy) for evaluation participants are essential.
  • Importance of selecting participants for evaluation to represent the intended user population.

Chapter 15: Evaluation Studies: From Controlled to Natural Settings

  • In-the-wild studies allow observation of real-world use of products and services.
  • Usability testing is done in tightly controlled settings to test specific hypotheses.
  • Remote evaluation methods facilitate studies across a wider range of participants.
  • Use of various data collection methods (video, interviews, questionnaires, wearable sensors, etc.)
  • Emphasis on user experience in evaluation (e.g., enjoyment, satisfaction, motivation).

Chapter 16: Evaluation: Inspections, Analytics, and Models

  • Evaluation methods that do not involve direct interaction with users (inspections, analytics, predictive models)
  • Heuristic evaluation method, and the cognitive walkthrough, help identify potential usability issues.
  • Web analytics collects and uses data about website user behavior for improving or evaluating designs.
  • A/B testing is a controlled experiment approach for comparing different design options (e.g., button placement).
  • Fitts' Law as a predictive model for estimating user response time to various interface tasks.
