商品描述

Description:

The authors of Thoughtful Interaction Design go beyond the usual technical concerns of usability and usefulness to consider interaction design from a design perspective. The shaping of digital artifacts is a design process that influences the form and functions of workplaces, schools, communication, and culture; the successful interaction designer must use both ethical and aesthetic judgment to create designs that are appropriate to a given environment. This book is not a how-to manual, but a collection of tools for thought about interaction design.

Working with information technology -- called by the authors "the material without qualities" -- interaction designers create not a static object but a dynamic pattern of interactivity. The design vision is closely linked to context and not simply focused on the technology. The authors' action-oriented and context-dependent design theory, drawing on design theorist Donald Schön's concept of the reflective practitioner, helps designers deal with complex design challenges created by new technology and new knowledge. Their approach, based on a foundation of thoughtfulness that acknowledges the designer's responsibility not only for the functional qualities of the design product but for the ethical and aesthetic qualities as well, fills the need for a theory of interaction design that can increase and nurture design knowledge. From this perspective they address the fundamental question of what kind of knowledge an aspiring designer needs, discussing the process of design, the designer, design methods and techniques, the design product and its qualities, and conditions for interaction design.

Jonas Löwgren is Professor of Interaction Design at Malmö University, Sweden.

Erik Stolterman is Professor of Informatics at Umeå University, Sweden.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

描述:
《Thoughtful Interaction Design》的作者超越了對可用性和有用性的傳統技術關注,從設計的角度考慮了互動設計。數字工具的塑造是一個設計過程,它影響著工作場所、學校、溝通和文化的形式和功能;成功的互動設計師必須使用道德和美學判斷力來創造適合特定環境的設計。這本書不是一本如何指南,而是一個關於互動設計思考的工具集。

與信息技術一起工作 - 作者稱之為“沒有特性的材料” - 互動設計師創造的不是一個靜態的物體,而是一個動態的互動模式。設計視野與上下文密切相關,而不僅僅關注技術。作者基於設計理論家唐納德·肖恩的反思實踐者概念,提出了一種行動導向和上下文依賴的設計理論,幫助設計師應對新技術和新知識帶來的複雜設計挑戰。他們的方法基於一種思慮的基礎,承認設計師不僅對設計產品的功能特性負責,還對道德和美學特性負責,填補了互動設計理論的需求,可以增加和培養設計知識。從這個角度出發,他們討論了一個有抱負的設計師需要什麼樣的知識,設計過程、設計師、設計方法和技術、設計產品及其特性,以及互動設計的條件。
