1. Different guys have different explanation on interaction/interface design, some guys interface design may include interaction design.
2. But, from more than less literature, we can come up with a model (simplified) like People [with goal] <--> interaction <--> interface [of object's function/features]. Interface design is more to the Object side, while interaction design is more to the middle between people and object(or more to human side). Let's imagine design a web site, interface is about design the interface after how people use the site is defined, while interaction design is about design how people use the site. 3. If as 2, the design process and methods, and evaluation points are different ( but not totally different) for the two Ds, ( what's the good , how to evaluate it's good , blahblah... ) Cheers, -- Jarod On Fri, Oct 17, 2008 at 8:12 PM, Tahsin Shamma <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi all, I'm new to this discussion group and have been a systems > developer/web developer for quite a while.
