The document discusses scenario-based design, which involves creating narrative descriptions of envisioned usage scenarios to guide the development of a system. Key points:
- Scenarios describe settings, actors, goals, actions, events, and objects to vividly capture potential human-computer interactions without detailing interfaces.
- A simple example contrasts three scenarios of a club member interacting online in different ways.
- Scenarios are useful early in design to explore possibilities and focus on usability rather than committing to specific solutions or interfaces.

1. The Basic Idea
Scenario-based design is a family of techniques in which the use of a future system
is concretely described at an early point in the development process. Narrative descriptions
of envisioned usage episodes are then employed in a variety of ways to guide the
development of the system that will enable these use experiences.
Like other user-centered approaches, scenario-based design changes the focus of
design work from defining system operations (i.e., functional specification) to describing
how people will use a system to accomplish work tasks and other activities. However,
unlike approaches that consider human behavior and experience through formal analysis
and modeling of well-specified tasks, scenario-based design is a relatively lightweight
method for envisioning future use possibilities.
A user interaction scenario is a sketch of use. It is intended to vividly capture the
essence of an interaction design, much as a two-dimensional, paper-and-pencil sketch
captures the essence of a physical design.
2. A Simple Example
Scenarios are stories. They consist of a setting, or situation state, one or more actors with
personal motivations, knowledge, and capabilities, and various tools and objects that the
actors encounter and manipulate. The scenario describes a sequence of actions and events
that lead to an outcome. These actions and events are related in a usage context that
includes the goals, plans, and reactions of the people taking part in the episode.
Table 1 presents three brief scenarios in which a member of a club uses different
network tools to interact with club members. In all of these scenarios, the person’s goal is
to visit a club and interact with her friends at the club. The scenarios contrast three ways
that such a goal might be supported by computer network technologies. Each is a potential
“solution” to Sharon’s needs, but the user experience varies from asynchronous text-based
reading and posting, to a real-time graphical simulation of a meeting place.
Designers can quickly construct scenarios like these in order to make envisioned
possibilities more concrete. The example contrasts three contemporary approaches to
online interactions, but not as an abstraction, not as a list of features or functions. It
contrasts three episodes of human-computer interaction and personal experience.
4. Ohud disainiprotsessi alguses
• Disainerid võivad valida liiga kiiresti esimese ettetulnud
lahenduse
• Disainerid võivad lihtsustada probleemi ja taaskasutada
tuttavaid lahendusi
• Disainerid ei analüüsi piisavalt erinevaid ideid või alternatiive
(Rosson & Carroll, 2002)
5. Mis on stsenaariumid?
Lühikesed lood inimestest ja nende tegevustest, mis
… kirjeldavad tüüpilisi kasutussituatsioone
… keskenduvad eesmärkidele, tegevustele ja objektidele
… jätavad välja kasutajaliidese detailid
6. Stsenaariumide eelised
• Stsenaariumid näitavad disainiprotsessi edasiliikumist, kuid ei
tekita tugevat seotust stsenaariumides kirjeldatud ideedega
• Stsenaariumid pööravad tähelepanu disainiideede
kasutuskõlblikkusele
• Stsenaariumide lõpetamata olemus tõstatab küsimusi
(Rosson & Carroll, 2002)
7. Stsenaariumi elemendid
• Tegevuspaik (ingl setting) — kasutusepisoodi algseisukorra ja seotud
objektide kirjeldus
• Tegelased (ingl actors)
• Eesmärgid (ingl goals)
• Tegevused (ingl actions) — tegevused, mida tegelased teevad
• Sündmused (ingl events) — sündmused, mis tegelastega juhtuvad
• Objektid (ingl objects)
(Carroll, 2000)
8. Eesmärgid
Harry is interested in bridge failures; as a child, he saw a
small bridge collapse when its footings were undermined after
a heavy rainfall.
He opens the case study of the Tacoma Narrows Bridge and
requests to see the film of its collapse. He is stunned to
see the bridge first sway, then ripple, and ultimately lurch
apart.
He quickly replays the film, and then opens the associated
course module on harmonic motion.
He browses the material (without doing the exercises), saves
the film clip in his workbook with a speech annotation, and
then enters a natural language query to find pointers to
other physical manifestations of harmonic motion.
He moves on to a case study involving flutes and piccolos.
