In the lab this week we began by discussing the blog we have been asked to create. We examined what constitutes good and bad design and how we can incorporate this into our blog. Coursework two, a research and design project, was also briefly discussed. As I have already decided on my question, the overview of the different topics within Interaction design was not needed, but interesting nonetheless.
There are many different mistakes that individuals make when creating a blog, the most common include having inconsistent and confusing menus, unreadable text, and spelling and grammatical errors. Over the following weeks I hope to improve the design and content of my blog to make sure that it does not contain any of these common mistakes; I will also be improving the design so that the blog is more aesthetically pleasing and unique.
This week I have to been reading through many books on Interaction Design and I’ve come across a particular field that interests me. I spoke about it briefly last week, and that is Ambient Intelligence. If these devices were wide spread, then we could have a world that learns and adapts to how we live our public (and possibly private) life. This is an immensely fascinating prospect but also equally terrifying, important questions would need to be answered before such a system could exist, including:
- Who would have access to these systems and the data they collect?
- What limits would be placed on that data?
- What security measures would be in place to protect our most sensitive data?
