This book addresses emerging issues in usability, interface design, human–computer interaction, user experience and assistive technology. It highlights research aimed at understanding human interactions with products, services and systems and focuses on finding effective approaches for improving the user experience. It also discusses key issues in designing and providing assistive devices and services for individuals with disabilities or impairment, offering them support with mobility, communication, positioning, environmental control and daily living. The book covers modeling as well as innovative design concepts, with a special emphasis on user-centered design, and design for specific populations, particularly the elderly. Further topics include virtual reality, digital environments, gaming, heuristic evaluation and forms of device interface feedback (e.g. visual and haptic). Based on the AHFE 2021 Conferences on Usability and User Experience, Human Factors and Wearable Technologies, Human Factors in Virtual Environments and Game Design, and Human Factors and Assistive Technology, held virtually on 25–29 July, 2021, from USA, this book provides academics and professionals with an extensive source of information and a timely guide to tools, applications and future challenges in these fields.

Miguel Arenas Vargas, creador del método educativo que lleva su nombre, nació en la ciudad de México, Distrito Federal, el 14 de julio de 1940. Ha dedicado su vida a la formación de científicos independientes en pequeñas comunidades esparcidas en la periferia de la república mexicana a partir del reconocimiento que la sociedad mexicana, así como la de muchos países con economías en desarrollo necesitan de científicos para poder acceder a mejores condiciones de vida para sus habitantes. Al tratar de responder la pregunta: ¿Cómo aprende el hombre?, propone una revolución en la educación para la salud humana, la salud animal y el aprovechamiento de los recursos naturales, mediante innovaciones educativas que centran al estudiante en el aprendizaje auto‐dirigido y en la investigación como método de estudio. Este libro es producto de 30 años de trabajo pedagógico por parte de Joel López-Pérez y y17 años de inmersión en la innovación educativa por parte de Susana Juárez-López, ambos comprometidos con la formación de investigadores al lado de Miguel Arenas. El Método Arenas (MA) utiliza las estrategias del PBL (Problem Based Learning) ligado a otras técnicas de aprendizaje grupales, como los grupos operativos de Pichón Riviere, y las Comunidades de Práctica (COPs) ampliamente estudiadas por Jean Lave y Etienne Wenger desde la última década del siglo XX, para hacer de las reuniones de discusión una experiencia óptima que fluye para hacer consciente el inconsciente y generar cambios en la mente de los participantes. El componente educativo fundamental de este revolucionario método es el acto consciente, ya que las cosas adquieren importancia para nosotros cuando somos conscientes de su existencia, que es el pensamiento central en los grupos que han adoptado las formas de preceder propuestas por Miguel Arenas.

Genre: Art
ISBN: 1000219593

This book seeks to establish the meaning of design research, its role in the field, and the characteristics that differentiate research in design from research in other fields. The author introduces a model to explain the relationship between the components of the ontological reality of design: the designed object, the designer, and the user. Addressing design research across disciplines, the author establishes a foundational understanding of research, and research paradigms, for the design disciplines. This will be crucial for the emerging field of design research to find its own identity and move forward, building its own knowledge base as it finds its positioning between science and art. The book will be of interest to scholars working in design history, design studies, graphic design, industrial design, interior design, architecture, fashion design, and service design.
