Location:  Columbia 3
Session Type: 60 Minute Presentation
Description: Interaction Patterns focus on high-level design—the structure, interaction, and flow of a system. Not only do they provide a method to visually represent this structure, but they also provide a process to analyze it. Interaction patterns drive structural thinking, teaching you to see and think structurally—which results in better, more coherent designs.
Audience: UX Fundamentals/Novice practitioners
