Designing a usable interface can be challenging. One of the best ways to learn is to review interfaces and see where they deviate from convention. This week, we learn about 2 concepts: the 8 golden rules of interface design and methods of capturing the user’s attention.

For your discussion question this week, first, provide 3 examples of systems, computer interfaces, applications, or websites that violate some of those rules. For each example, explain what rules are violated and how you would fix them.

Second, provide 3 examples of interfaces that catch the user’s attention well when alerting them to an abnormal condition or time-dependent information. Explain other options that could have been used to accomplish the same result.
