User experience. Definitions[edit] ISO 9241-210[1] defines user experience as "a person's perceptions and responses that result from the use or anticipated use of a product, system or service". According to the ISO definition, user experience includes all the users' emotions, beliefs, preferences, perceptions, physical and psychological responses, behaviors and accomplishments that occur before, during and after use. The ISO also list three factors that influence user experience: system, user and the context of use. Note 3 of the standard hints that usability addresses aspects of user experience, e.g. "usability criteria can be used to assess aspects of user experience". The standard does not go further in clarifying the relation between user experience and usability. In addition to the ISO standard, there exist several other definitions for user experience, see Allaboutux.org.[2] Some of them have been studied by Law et al.[3] History[edit] Influences on user experience[edit] See also[edit] References[edit]
Table of Contents. Divine grace. Divine grace is a theological term present in many religions. It has been defined as the divine influence which operates in humans to regenerate and sanctify, to inspire virtuous impulses, and to impart strength to endure trial and resist temptation;[1] and as an individual virtue or excellence of divine origin.[2] Christianity[edit] Grace in Christianity is the free and unmerited favour of God as manifested in the salvation of sinners and the bestowing of blessings.[3] It is God's gift of salvation granted to sinners for their salvation.

Backpack and Daypacks Recommendations. Part of Recommended Outdoor Gear by Mark Verber Sections in this document: Backpacks for Overnights (and longer) Choosing a backpack can be tricky, especially for someone who is just starting out. You need to know what you are carrying to choose the right pack, but if you are just starting out you don't know what you are going to be carrying. What you are carrying effects how much volume you will need, and how substantial the suspension system needs to be. Beside the backpack being able to hold everything you need it to, the most important thing is to find the pack which is comfortable when holding the load you plan on carrying. I can't stress enough how important getting a comfortable backpack can be.

FLA SINGAPORE. Why is branding important? It distinguishes one company/product from another. It tells the customers what the company/product is about It helps customers identify with the company/product and what the company/product represents Having a brand in itself is not difficult. Simply registering a company will force any company to legally incorporate a somewhat unique identity. Yet many companies, especially small and medium enterprises, do not place enough emphasis on branding when engaging their customers. The two most common reasons given are the lack of budget allocated for branding and the absence of the know-how in addressing branding.
Though awareness is an important component of branding, it is not the only component in its success. The aim of this article is to provide a simple approach to branding. Communication This is one of the most critical. Companies must decide: Key takeaway: If the intended customers are not aware of the brand, it will not be considered. Confidence Connection.

Herald. A herald, or, more correctly, a herald of arms, is an officer of arms, ranking between pursuivant and king of arms. The title is commonly applied more broadly to all officers of arms. Heralds were originally messengers sent by monarchs or noblemen to convey messages or proclamations—in this sense being the predecessors of the modern diplomats. In the Hundred Years' War, French heralds challenged King Henry V to fight. During the Battle of Agincourt, the English and the French herald, Montjoie, watched the battle together from a nearby hill; both agreed that the English were the victors, and Montjoie provided King Henry V, who thus earned the right to name the battle, with the name of the nearby castle.[1] Like other officers of arms, a herald would often wear a surcoat, called a tabard, decorated with the coat of arms of his master.

Ersatz. An ersatz (German pronunciation: [ɛrˈzats]) good is a substitute good, usually considered of inferior quality to the good it replaces. It has particular connotations of wartime usage. Etymology[edit] Ersatz is a German word literally meaning substitute or replacement.[1] Although it is used as an adjective in English, Ersatz can only function in German as a noun on its own, or as a part in compound nouns such as Ersatzteile ("spare parts") or Ersatzspieler ("substitute player").
While the term used in English often implies that the substitution is of unsatisfactory or inferior quality compared to the "real thing", it has both connotations in German, depending on the other noun; e.g. Ersatzteile ("spare parts") is a technical expression without any implication about quality, whereas in other cases it may mean things of poorer quality, e.g. Ersatzkaffee (coffee not made from coffee beans). Historical context[edit] World War I[edit] World War II[edit] References[edit] Art Deco. Historian Bevis Hillier defined Art Deco as "an assertively modern style [that] ran to symmetry rather than asymmetry, and to the rectilinear rather than the curvilinear; it responded to the demands of the machine and of new material [and] the requirements of mass production".[2] During its heyday, Art Deco represented luxury, glamour, exuberance, and faith in social and technological progress.
Etymology[edit] The first use of the term Art Deco has been attributed to architect Le Corbusier, who penned a series of articles in his journal L'Esprit nouveau under the headline 1925 Expo: Arts Déco. He was referring to the 1925 Exposition Internationale des Arts Décoratifs et Industriels Modernes (International Exposition of Modern Decorative and Industrial Arts).[3] Origins[edit] Joseph Csaky, Deux figures, 1920, relief, limestone, polychrome, 80 cm. At the 1907 Salon d'Automne in Paris, Georges Braque exhibited Viaduc à l'Estaque (a proto-Cubist work), now at the Minneapolis Institute of Arts. Victor Horta. Victor, Baron Horta (6 January 1861 - 8 September 1947) was a Belgian architect and designer. John Julius Norwich described him as "undoubtedly the key European Art Nouveau architect. " Indeed, Horta is one of the most important names in Art Nouveau architecture; the construction of his Hôtel Tassel in Brussels in 1892-3 means that he is sometimes credited as the first to introduce the style to architecture from the decorative arts.
The French architect Hector Guimard was deeply influenced by Horta and further spread the "whiplash" style in France and abroad. Life and career[edit] Born in Ghent, Horta was first attracted to the architectural profession when he helped his uncle on a building site at the age of twelve. [citation needed] When Horta's father died in 1880, he returned to Belgium and moved to Brussels, married his first wife, with whom he later fathered two daughters, and went to study architecture at the Académie Royale des Beaux-Arts.
