MATCHING TYPE

1. Where users issue instructions to a system. INSTRUCTING

2. Where users have a dialog with a system. CONVERSING

3. Where users interact with objects in a virtual or physical space by manipulating them.

MANIPULATING

4. Where users move through a virtual environment or a physical space. EXPLORING

5. Where the system initiates the interaction and the user chooses whether to respond. RESPONDING

6. This form of interaction is based on the idea of a person having a conversation with a system, where the
system acts as a dialogue partner. CONVERSING

7. Methods were developed based on an individual user’s cognitive capabilities. PARADIGM

8. The future, like Mark Weiser’s vision of ubiquitous technology, provide a powerful driving force that can
lead to a paradigm shift in terms of what research and development is carried out in companies and
universities. VISIONS

9. These have been primarily cognitive, social, affective, and organizational in origin. THEORIES

10. It’s been used more generally in interaction design to describe, in a simplified way, some aspect of
human behavior or human-computer interaction. MODELS

11. Introduced in interaction design to help designers constrain and scope the user experience for which
they are designing. FRAMEWORKS

12. The model the designer has of how the system should work. DESIGNERS MODEL

13. Interaction design involves designing the behavior of interactive products as well as their look and feel.

PROTOTYPING

14. It is the process of determining the usability and acceptability of the product or design measured in
terms of a variety of usability and user-experience criteria. EVALUATING

15. Designers try to gather insights about the problem. DISCOVER

16. Designers develop a clear brief that frames the design challenge. DEFINE
