Don Norman talks about his book

Human interactions, communications, symbosis, connections with technology are topics that Norman have addressed in this video. How much intelligence do we need in technology surrounding us? Will it help us or create a bizarre? Cars, airplanes, smart kitchens, bathrooms are being built to make our lives easy and designers are working hard on it. This is call for those designers who are engaged in making these smart systems. The message by Norman is clear “make it smart and easy” This is also applicable for the field of education technology which is geared to meet the challenges of 21st century. Education technologists are looked upon as system designers that use technology to deliver educational content. As system designers it is important to take two cents from what Norman thinks. In this video he talks about the gap between a technological solution and the real world. He brings out the difference between human actions and machines actions, human goals and machine goals, human perceptions and machine perceptions.
