Jesse James Garrett: The Elements of User Experience

Jesse James Garrett: The Elements of User Experience
What the reviewers are saying: "brilliant" "invaluable" "a must-have" "an instant classic" "a quantum leap in explaining user experience" "will change the way you think about Web development" "the best book I have read so far about creating a great user experience" "there is probably no better book on the market that so clearly and rationally covers the entire area of user experience" read more reviews What it says on the cover: Smart organizations recognize that Web design is more than just creating clean code and sharp graphics. But creating the user experience can seem overwhelmingly complex. The Elements of User Experience cuts through the complexity of user-centered design for the Web with clear explanations and vivid illustrations that focus on ideas rather than tools or techniques. Advance praise for The Elements of User Experience: "Finally, a concise explanation of user experience that synthesizes its many disparate parts. From the Introduction: This is not a how-to book.

Elements of Learning Experience Design | Andre Plaut WAVE - Web Accessibility Evaluation Tool Your app makes me fat — Serious Pony An experiment asked one group of dogs to sit, just sit, nothing else, for a few minutes before being released to play with their favorite treat “puzzle” toy (the ones where the dog has to work at getting the treats out of it). The other group of dogs were allowed to just hang out in their crates before getting the treat puzzle. You know where this goes: the dogs that had to sit — exercising self-control — gave up on the puzzle much earlier than the dogs that were just hanging out in their crate.The dogs that were NOT burning cognitive resources being obedient had more determination and mental/emotional energy for solving the puzzle. Now think about what we're doing to our users. If your UX asks the user to make choices, for example, even if those choices are both clear and useful, the act of deciding is a cognitive drain. If your app is confusing and your tech support / FAQ isn't helpful, you’re drawing down my scarce, precious, cognitive resources. Your app makes me fat.

Teaching as a Design Science: Building Pedagogical Patterns for Learning and Technology. p. 1 teaching - art, science, design science (like engineering). Herbert Simon The Sciences of the Artificial. design principles rather than theories, heuristics of practice rather than explanations uses what is known about teaching to attain the goal of student learning, uses the implementation of its designs to keep improving them tools always important for teaching - from writing. not developed for education. p3 knowledge technologies. change our relationship to what is known and how it can be known. example: reading/writing about business case, role-play with simulation, experiment with spreadsheet… learning outcomes similar wrt factual, but different experiences, different ways of knowing. forms of knowledge: analytical, experiential, experimental. Roger Saljo knowledge generated by teachers is not shared p6 not meant as methodology for teaching practitioners, too much work format of a design pattern? p11 what is formal learning? p20 can learning goals be defined across disciplines.

A Visual Primer On Learning Theory Theories on how people learn are not new. Piaget, Bruner, Vygotsky, Skinner and others have theorized for years how it is we come to “know” things. Unlike many theories involving physics for example, it is unlikely that a single learning theory is “right,” and will ultimately prove other theories “wrong.” How people learn is complex, and any unifying theory on how it all happens that’s entirely accurate would likely be too vague to be helpful. In that way, each “theory” is more of a way to describe one truth out of many. 4 Traditional Theories Of Learning Of the published research and science, three of the more popular theories in the last fifty years are behaviorism, cognitivism, and constructivism. 1. 2. 3. 4.
