Abstract

This paper presents Integrative Workplace, a system which blends the qualities of digital and physical sources by augmenting physical books with properties of digital books and vice versa. On the base of Blended Interaction, we designed a system which helps users to interact with the new and unfamiliar functionality of digitally augmented books. In a user study, law students employed Integrative Workplace to work on a legal case. The positive feedback of participants indicated that we managed to design a system which is usable in a professional context. Furthermore, the study revealed evidence that digitally well-established concepts are a part of users’ reality and need to be considered in the design of new user interfaces. The results of this user study encourage us to continue to use Blended Interaction in the design process of novel user interfaces with an unfamiliar functionality.

Summary in another language

In diesem Beitrag wird Integrative Workplace vorgestellt, ein Arbeitsplatz der physische Bücher mit den Eigenschaften digitaler Bücher anreichert und umgekehrt. Auf Basis des Design Frameworks Blended Interaction wurde ein System entwickelt, das Benutzern hilft mit der neuartigen Funktionalität von digital angereicherten Büchern interagieren zu können. In einer Nutzerstudie verwendeten Jurastudenten Integrative Workplace um einen Sachverhalt zu bearbeiten. Die positive Resonanz der Teilnehmer zeigt, dass das System rechtswissenschaftliches Arbeiten unterstützt. Darüber hinaus gab die Studie Hinweis darauf, dass etablierte digitale Konzepte ein Teil der Realität geworden sind und daher beim Design von Benutzerschnittstellen berücksichtigt werden müssen. Die Ergebnisse der Studie ermutigen uns, Blended Interaction auch weiterhin im Designprozess neuartiger Benutzerschnittstellen zu verwenden.
