Educators across the world have been using design thinking to create such a world. Design thinking consists of four key elements: Defining the Problem, Creating and Considering Multiple Options, Refining Selected Directions, and Executing the Best Plan of Action. An early example of design thinking would have been Edison’s invention of the light bulb.

Specifying Interaction with Mockups About this Tutorial # Example storyboard depicting motion in the film, The Forbidden Kingdom Designers, filmmakers, and animators have used low fidelity, static representations of content for communicating motion and interaction for years. The tutorial starts with a brief explanation of why these techniques are used, but if you like you can skip to the examples. Low Fidelity Interaction Design # The spectrum of techniques for specifying and communicating interaction ranges from sketching to prototyping. These are the techniques typical in design and development for specifying interaction in software, web sites, and applications. We think Mockups fits into this picture of early ideation in different ways. Before we get into the details about the techniques, let's consider the differences. Sketches and prototypes are both instantiations of the design concept. Working in low fidelity saves time and money, and gives you a better chance of ending up with the right design. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 7.
