49. CSE490f- Autumn 2006User Interface Design, Prototyping, and Evaluation49 Design = Solutions Design is about finding solutions Unfortunately, designers often reinvent Hard to know how things were done before Why things were done a certain way How to reuse solutions

50. CSE490f- Autumn 2006User Interface Design, Prototyping, and Evaluation50 Design Patterns Design patterns communicate common design problems and solutions –First used in architecture [Alexander] Ex. How to create a beer hall where people socialize?

51. CSE490f- Autumn 2006User Interface Design, Prototyping, and Evaluation51 Using Design Patterns Not too general and not too specific –Use a solution “a million times over, without ever doing it the same way twice” Design patterns are a shared language –for “building and planning towns, neighborhoods, houses, gardens, & rooms.” –Ex. Beer hall is part of a center for public life… –Ex. Beer hall needs spaces for groups to be alone… ALCOVES

65. CSE490f- Autumn 2006User Interface Design, Prototyping, and Evaluation65 Patterns Support Creativity Patterns come from successful examples –sites that are so successful that lots of users are familiar with their paradigms (e.g., Yahoo) –interaction techniques/metaphors that work well across many sites (e.g., shopping carts) Not too general & not too specific –you need to specialize to your needs Patterns let you focus on the hard, unique problems to your design situation –every real design will have many of these

66. CSE490f- Autumn 2006User Interface Design, Prototyping, and Evaluation66 Patterns Offer the Best of Principles, Guidelines, & Templates Patterns help you get the details right, without over-constraining your solution –unlike principles, patterns not too general, so will apply to your situation –unlike guidelines, patterns discuss tradeoffs, show good examples, & tie to other patterns –unlike style guides, patterns not too specific, so can still be specialized –unlike templates, patterns illustrate flows among different pages Patterns can serve as documentation for team-oriented environments

70. CSE490f- Autumn 2006User Interface Design, Prototyping, and Evaluation70 Example of How to Use Patterns Sarah is designer on e-commerce site selling custom t-shirts to businesses Her team notices drop-off in checkout process (abandoned shopping carts) She turns to design patterns –looks to Pattern Group F – Basic E-Commerce –QUICK FLOW CHECKOUT (F1) catches her eye –looks to references PERSONAL E-COMMERCE (A1) – skims & sees too high level for current issue SHOPPING CART (F3) – looks promising, but not now PROCESS FUNNEL (H1) – how to keep people on task – exactly what her team needs now!

71. CSE490f- Autumn 2006User Interface Design, Prototyping, and Evaluation71 Example of How to Use Patterns Sarah uses PROCESS FUNNEL (H1) to find flaws & redesign checkout process –e.g., notices current checkout is heavy with text instructions & many links that leave the page Using PROCESS FUNNEL (H1), sketches 3 new designs Gets feedback on new designs from team Iterates to produce 2 designs Performs a quick 1 day evaluation w/ 5 users –visits them at work & has them use old design anticipated many of the problems, but notes a few new ones –next she shows new design & has user describe where each link will go & asks whether content makes sense –uses the results to iterate again & present to team

73. CSE490f- Autumn 2006User Interface Design, Prototyping, and Evaluation73 MEANINGFUL ERROR MESSAGES (K13) Problem: When customers make mistakes, they need to be informed of the problem and how to recover Solution –Clear statement of problem –Explain how to recover –Position near the problem

75. CSE490f- Autumn 2006User Interface Design, Prototyping, and Evaluation75 Clear error message? –two messages at top Explains how to recover? –only implies it is missing required information Positioned near the problem? –error messages far –required info differs in green/red -> problem for users w/ color deficiency Clear error message? –two messages at top Explains how to recover? –only implies it is missing required information Positioned near the problem? –error messages far –required info differs in green/red -> problem for users w/ color deficiency

80. CSE490f- Autumn 2006User Interface Design, Prototyping, and Evaluation80 Patterns in Exploration Phase Use Exploration-level patterns to design overall structure –different choices will give radically different designs For example, how to organize information –HIERARCHICAL ORGANIZATION (B3) –TASK-BASED ORGANIZATION (B4) –ALHABETICAL ORGANIZATION (B5) –…

81. CSE490f- Autumn 2006User Interface Design, Prototyping, and Evaluation81 Patterns in Exploration Phase TASK-BASED ORGANIZATION (B4): Link the completion of one group of tasks to the beginning of the next related task(s)

82. CSE490f- Autumn 2006User Interface Design, Prototyping, and Evaluation82 Design Exploration Example John given the task of designing a new subsite for showing maps to businesses –listings found by typing in address –key feature: show nearby businesses John comes up with two design sketches –Design #1 uses ALPHABETICAL ORGANIZATION (B5) for list of all nearby businesses –Design #2 uses TASK-BASED ORGANIZATION (B4) for list of related nearby businesses

83. CSE490f- Autumn 2006User Interface Design, Prototyping, and Evaluation83 Design #1 ALPHABETICAL ORGANIZATION (B5)

84. CSE490f- Autumn 2006User Interface Design, Prototyping, and Evaluation84 Design #2 TASK-BASED ORGANIZATION (B4)

85. CSE490f- Autumn 2006User Interface Design, Prototyping, and Evaluation85 Evaluating Which Design to Choose Low-fidelity Usability Test –sketches the rest of the key screens on paper –brings in 5 participants to his office –asks each to carry out 3 tasks while John’s colleague Sam “plays computer” –John observes how they perform Tasks 1) look up 1645 Solano Ave., Berkeley CA 2) look up 1700 California Ave, San Francisco CA & find Tadich Grill 3) look up 2106 N 55th St, Seattle WA & find a Sushi restaurant nearby

86. CSE490f- Autumn 2006User Interface Design, Prototyping, and Evaluation86 Evaluating Which Design to Choose Results with Design #1 (Alphabetical) –Task 1: look up 1645 Solano Ave no difficulties encountered – warm-up task! –Task 2: look up 1700 California & find Tadich Grill several users didn’t notice that the list of nearby businesses was scrollable (due to paper affordances?) those that scrolled took awhile to find in list of over 500 –Task 3: look up 2106 55th St & find nearby Sushi restaurant 3 users only picked restaurants that had “restaurant” in the name & thus couldn’t find “Kisaku”

87. CSE490f- Autumn 2006User Interface Design, Prototyping, and Evaluation87 Evaluating Which Design to Choose Results with Design #2 (Task-based) –Task 1: look up 1645 Solano Ave no difficulties encountered – warm-up task! –Task 2: look up 1700 California & find Tadich Grill 1 user took awhile to figure out that Tadich Grill was a restaurant & to click on the “Restaurants” link all others found it in 2 clicks (Restaurants->Tadich Grill) –Task 3: look up 2106 55th St & find nearby Sushi restaurant 3 found “Kisaku” in 2 clicks 2 others asked for a listing of Japanese restaurants

88. CSE490f- Autumn 2006User Interface Design, Prototyping, and Evaluation88 Evaluating Which Design to Choose General comments –2 users said they often want to email maps to friends who they will be meeting (task-based) –3 users wanted driving directions (task- based) → TASK-BASED ORGANIZATION (B4) worked better, but still had some minor problems
