A delightful, engaging, and comprehensive overview of interaction design.
Effective and engaging design is a critical component of any digital product, from virtual reality software to chatbots, smartphone apps, and more.
In the newly updated sixth edition of Interaction Design: Beyond Human-Computer Interaction, a team of accomplished technology, design, and computing professors delivers an intuitive and instructive discussion of the principles underlying the design of effective interactive technologies. The authors discuss how to design and apply digital technologies in the real world, illustrated with numerous examples. The book explores the interdisciplinary foundations of interaction design, including skills from product design, computer science, human and social psychology, and others.
The book builds on the highly successful fifth edition and draws on extensive new research and interviews with accomplished professionals and researchers in the field that reflect a rapidly-changing landscape. It is supported by a website hosting digital resources that add to and complement the material contained within.
Our textbook is aimed at undergraduate and graduate students from a range of backgrounds studying introductory classes in human-computer interaction, interaction design, information and communications technology, web design, software engineering, digital media, information systems, and information studies. It will also appeal to practitioners, designers, and researchers who want to discover what is new in the field or to learn about a specific design approach, method, interface, or topic. It is written in an accessible way and so will appeal to a general audience interested in design and technology.
Several terms have been used to emphasize different aspects of what is being designed, including user interface design (UI), software design, user-centered design, human-centered design, people-centered design, product design, web design, user experience (UX) design, customer experience (CX) design, and interactive system design. Interaction design (IxD) is generally used as the overarching term to describe the field, including its methods, theories, and approaches. Since about 2010, UX design has been the most widely used term in industry to refer to the profession. However, the terms have been used interchangeably. Also, it depends on each company’s ethos and brand.
