<P><B>Design Highlights</B> </P>
<UL>
<LI>Grandparent carries out all actions through the interface of an “address book,” which contains clickable buttons corresponding to each contact. All mode of communication options (including adding a contact) appear as overlays on top of the address book, so that the address book is always in sight.</LI>
<LI>Mode of communication is purposefully asymmetric to meet different needs. When grandparent sends voicemail, it is voice recorded on the grandparent’s side but sent as text/email to the grandchild’s side, to accommodate grandchild’s busy schedule.</LI>

<P><B>Usability Analysis</B> </P>
<OL>
<LI>Learnability
<UL>
<LI>Pros
<UL>
<LI>Address book metaphor and mailbox metaphor together maintain some external consistency with grandparent’s existing method of keeping contacts, and thus lowers the learning curve.</LI>
</UL>
</LI>
<LI>Cons
<UL>
<LI>Address book metaphor combined with dialing the desired contact may confuse a new user. In real life, one does not add to a paper address book by dialing the person’s number.</LI>
</UL>
</LI>
</UL>
</LI>
<LI>Efficiency
<UL>
<LI>Pros
<UL>
<LI>Grandparent never needs to type on the keyboard.</LI>
<LI>Recording a voicemail is less time intensive than typing an email (provided the speech interface is easy to use).</LI>
<LI>Younger family member receives voicemail as text, so can check message while doing other activities.</LI>
</UL>
</LI>
<LI>Cons
<UL>
<LI>Grandparent must always go through a two-step process of selecting the desired contact before selecting the mode of communication (call vs. send voicemail).</LI>
</UL>
</LI>
</UL>
</LI>
<LI>Safety
<UL>
<LI>Pros
<UL>
<LI>Because the main page is never out of sight (all other functionality appear as overlays), cancelling an unwanted action is more visually intuitive; the “default” mode is always visible.
