Résumé :
Users have many options to enhance their productivity with applications, such as customizing the interface or learning new interaction strategies. One example is to use hotkeys which enable rapid execution of frequently used commands. However, "expert" features like hotkeys are often ignored and users stick to "novice" interaction mechanisms, limited by a relatively low cap of performance. In this talk, I will be presenting my work toward improving user's expertise with software applications. In particular, I will explain the design and evaluation of systems for helping users to use "expert" features while interacting with desktop computers and touch-sensitive surfaces.
