Process + Content

Week 2

Process

Map out the concepts and ideas using basic processes, pen and paper, sticky notes.

Content

Need to understand:

  • What people are trying to do
  • How they may try to do it
  • What gets in the way or helps
  • Where they might be doing it

Understand the motivation for and the context of a person’s behaviour so we can create interactive designs that facilitate these behaviours.

Questions to ask to help create content

  • What’s the setting or environment in which the interface or the device will be used?
  • Who will be using the device or interface? (one or multiple)
  • How long will the interface be used?
  • Does the experience need to be extremely simple?
  • What are the persons goals? (trying to accomplish or complete)
  • What’s the urgency?

When creating an interactive design, we need to know what the person wants so we can design a successful design interface.
