How do
we learn to use new tools?
|
|
|
|
• |
Reading the owner’s manual -- chain saw
|
|
|
Be taught in their use -- car, bicycle
|
|
|
|
• |
Figure them out ourselves -- CD player
|
|
|
• |
Software
designers wanting you to
|
|
|
learn
their tool ASAP, try for ‘intuitive’
|
|
|
• |
Consistent Interfaces -- build on experience
|
|
|
|
• |
Suggestive icons -- bypass terminology
|
|
|
|
• |
Metaphors -- exploit analogous reasoning
|
