The document discusses principles of interactive design, including consistency, visibility, learnability, predictability, and feedback. It provides examples of how websites like TGI Fridays, Home Depot, and Simple Plan incorporate these principles. The principles aim to create intuitive, easy-to-use websites where users can easily find what they are looking for and understand what actions they can take. Feedback is highlighted as important for companies to understand how users view the site and their experiences.

1. PRINCIPLES OF
INTERACTIVE DESIGN
Made by Autumn Andres

2. CONSISTENCY
• What makes every single website different is based on
2 simple conditions. 1, who designs the website, and 2,
what type of company it is. As you can see in the
photos on the next page, TGI Fridays is one of the
many websites that one person defiantly designed it.
They kept the same font everywhere on each slide, and
they tried to make the pictures of the food as clear as
possible.

4. VISIBILITY
• When you look at a website, there are certain options or
sections that you know you can click on to be able to go
more into depth in or you can get more information
about a certain event or item or whatever your looking at.
These pictures that will be on the next slide will show that
the Home Depot had made it easy to look at tools,
appliances, etc. The company doesn’t want to make you
feel stupid and they want to give you all the information
you will need to get the job done.

6. LEARNABILITY
• When it comes to being on any kind of a website, you will notice
that every little detail will lead you to some kind of information
that you are looking for or are happy to know. The example I have
chosen is the Canadian Band, Simple Plan. When you go onto
their website, there is a list of options that you can click from at
the very top. Most people start there eyes at the top of the page
and travel to the very bottom. Say somebody wanted to learn
more about them. A biography section will be open to learn more.
The more information someone has, the easier it will be to find
what they are looking for.

8. PREDICTABILITY
• When you are looking at a screen, you don’t want to be confused
on where everything is, you want to feel in control and know what
your doing. Nobody wants anyone to make them feel like their
stupid. If there is certain information that you need to fill out,
there should be steps that you will automatically know to do. You
can predict what is going to come next. This is important in any
kind of website for the simple reason of time. Nobody wants to
waste their time on stupid things. These next pictures will show
that you can easily follow along to very maximum extent.

10. FEEDBACK
• This in my opinion is the most important part out of any website,
because it lets the company know how they are doing and how
you the designer is doing. The point of feedback is giving the
customers and the public the chance to share their own opinion.
Or, some companies use the feedback to give customers a chance
to get some coupons or extra money off the next time they come
in. The pictures on the next slide show that you can receive some
money off the next time you buy an item from their store, and you
can state your opinion on the store itself.
