Some Experiences With Cooperative Interactive Storyboard Prototyping

Abstract

Certain types of products appear to be continually associated with poor interfaces. Especially for these product types, the need for active end-user participation in development activities is seen increasingly as critical to quality interface development. Cooperative Interactive Storyboard Prototyping (CISP) is a development approach facilitating active enduser participation in design activities that help to address these apparently difficult design problems. Key features of CISP include: 1) reducing the time and effort required to produce iterations of prototype interfaces; 2) support for interactive prototype use, evaluation and modification; and 3) creation and use of modifiable, domain specific buildingblocks.
