Book Description
INTERACTION DESIGN: BEYOND HUMAN-COMPUTER INTERACTION is an up-to-date exposition of the design of the current and next generation interactive technologies, such as the Web, mobiles, and wearables. These exciting new technologies bring additional challenges for designers and developers-challenges that require careful thought and a disciplined approach. Written for both students and practitioners from a broad range of backgrounds, this book addresses these challenges using a practical and refreshing approach. The text covers a wide range of issues , topics, and paradigms that go beyond the traditional scope of human-computer interaction (HCI). A central focus is how to design interactive products that enhance and extend the way people communicate, interact and work. The book is an ideal resource for learning the interdisciplinary skills needed for Interaction Design, Human-Computer Interaction, Information Design and Web Design. It: Explains how to use design and evaluation techniques for developing successful interactive technologies; Demonstrates, through many examples, the cognitive, social and affective issues that underpin the design of these technologies; Provides thought-provoking design dilemmas and interviews with expert designers and researchers; Uses a strong pedagogical format to foster understanding and enjoyment; Adopts an accessible conversational style of writing that will appeal to students and professionals alike. The authors have an impressive track record of writing about this field. They come from a broad range of backgrounds and have experience of working in academia, industry and corporations. Accompanying the text is an innovative website that contains various hands-on interactive design and evalutaiton activities, annotated links to other sites, a glossary of terms, and additional teaching and learning materials-at http://www.ID-Book.com
