Preface: This was a school assignment for the UXD Master’s program at Kent State University: Principles of Interaction Spring 2023

 

Video Assignment

Identify an interesting physical object/tool that you interact with regularly and create a 3-5 minutes video showing:

  • Its affordances and constraints
  • Difficulties & Ease of use
  •  “Offlabel” uses
  • Discuss how the design encourages (or discourages) learning, adoption, continued use/mastery

 

The object I chose was a power drill.

The goal was to get our minds off of digital products and focus on how we use physical products in the real world and where we struggle with (or enjoy) those just as much as we do our digital products. How all things around us are designed and created for a purpose, some done successfully and timeless; others not so much and often become outdated and obsolete.
