Teamwork Discussion post

What is User Interface Design?

According to the folks at Interaction Design Foundation [www.interaction-design.org/literature/topics/ui-design], user interface (UI) design is the process designers use to build interfaces in software or computerized devices, focusing on looks or style. Designers aim to create interfaces which users find easy to use and pleasurable. UI design refers to graphical user interfaces and other forms—e.g., voice-controlled interfaces.

It can be generally accepted that there are five prevalent types of user interface and each has a range of advantages and disadvantages:

  1. Command Line Interface
  2. Menu-driven Interface
  3. Graphical User Interface
  4. Touchscreen Graphical User Interface
  5. Conversational UI

Tasks:

  1. Select ONE (1) of the five prevalent types of user interface (UI) design methods listed above.
  2. Write a graduate-level paper NOT LESS THAN three (3) pages, in which you describe the UI design method that you have selected.

Journal # 4

Take your time reading the articles/book chapters. After reading the article and taking good notes so that you have thought about the material, you are ready to write your Journal entry. Summarize the author’s thesis—what was this reading really about, in a nutshell? What are some of the main points in support of his/her argument? Paraphrase rather than quote—use your own words. What did you find particularly interesting or insightful about the reading? Is there anything you did not understand? Is there one line/a short sentence that really struck you as important? Length should be a few meaty paragraphs (around 500 words), more if you are inspired. This is like a mini-essay, use paragraph form and proper sentences and grammar.

The format will be the same for all assignments. Prepare and upload your response into the Canvas/Turnitin module. Do not try to upload a Google doc, use pdf or docx or other regular format. Save your journal response in a document before uploading it, and keep it in a safe place.

  1. In one or two sentences, what is the thesis/main argument/subject of the chapter/article?
  2. What are three important points that you took away from the reading assignment? Select one or two points from the first third, one or two points from the second third, and the same from the last third of the reading. Use your own words, paraphrase, do not use quotes. Did you have any questions or parts that you didn’t understand?
