Studying Users for Developing Usable and Useful Products
This article presents a framework for studying users in order to support designers in constructing usable and useful consumer products. The framework is aimed at designing consumer products for which users cannot be specified in advance, long lasting observations of users are difficult or impossible to arrange, and the time frames available are short. We discuss what kind of end user informatio...

متن کاملMaking Computers More Useful and More Usable
97 Useful computers which are not usable are of little help; but so are usable computers which are not useful. One of the major goals of our research is to achieve these two goals simultaneously. We claim that useful computers have to be complex systems with a rich functionality. To make these systems usable and to exploit their power, we have constructed a variety of computer-based intelligent...
متن کاملCreating usable science: Opportunities and constraints for climate knowledge use and their implications for science policy
In the past several decades, decision makers in the United States have increasingly called upon publicly funded science to provide ‘‘usable’’ information for policy making, whether in the case of acid rain, famine prevention or climate change policy. As demands for usability become more prevalent for publicly accountable scientific programs, there is a need to better understand opportunities an...
متن کاملPrescriptive scientific narratives for communicating usable science.
In this paper I describe how a narrative approach to science communication may help audiences to more fully understand how science is relevant to their own lives and behaviors. The use of prescriptive scientific narrative can help to overcome challenges specific to scientific concepts, especially the need to reconsider long-held beliefs in the face of new empirical findings. Narrative can capti...
