Designers' Role Orientations in User- and System-Centered Design Phases
نویسنده
چکیده
The differences between userand system-centered design practice have been discussed broadly in the literature for a long period. The value of user-centredness has even been taken for granted occasionally, though there is clear evidence implying that broader participation of users should be evaluated relative to the situation in hand. In this paper, both userand system-centered conducting of a design is studied with respect to how to behave in different roles. The core idea is that userand system-centredness are needed in different phases of a design. The main problem is the proper role orientation in user-centered design. Change agentry models are used as a framework. As a result of this study, a proper role orientation in both system-centered and, especially, user-centered design is

متن کاملUsability designers improve the user-centred design process
This paper introduces the idea of having a usability designer role in development team following a user centred approach. There are difficulties in incorporating the user-centred activities into an existing development process, as a user-centred life cycle among other things requires new ways of searching for solutions. Often there is a need for more direct communication and co-operation betwee...
