It is the study focusing on the design of computer technology. The interaction between human and computer
A study and planned design of human and computer activities
Human Computer Interaction
Human interact with computers through a user ____
Interface
Central to interaction design and operations through specific computer system criteria
Usability
Focuses on creating system that are satisfying
User Experience
This principle states that the interaction and interface should cater the needs and wants of the target user
Know your user
Designing interaction with as little memory load as possible is a principle that also has a theoretical basis
Reduce memory load
One effective technique is to present or solicit only the relevant information as required at a given time
Prevebt Errors/Reversal of Action
one way to unburden the memory load is to keep consistency
Strive for Consistency
The term task refers to the job to be accomplished by the user through the use of the interactive system.
Understand the Task
any significant task will involve the use of memory, so another good strategy is to employ interfaces that give continuous reminders of important information
Remind user and refresh their memory
