- What’s something (not mentioned in the reading) that drives you crazy and how could it be improved?
I bought an alarm clock from IKEA back in Marhaba Week, and to this day, I have no idea how it works. I kind of figured out how to set the time correctly, but the alarm part is the problem. The alarm clock has two small knobs on the back. With no words in them, just two extremely vague symbols. One is for setting the time (I think) and the other is probably for the alarm, but there’s no indicator that the alarm was set, or at what time or anything really. I believe it could be improved simply by adding a small text explaining how it works. - How can you apply some of the author’s principles of design to interactive media?
I think interactive media should go along HCD and also prioritize (but never limit itself to) the affordances, the signifiers and the feedback principles mostly when coming up with something.
