1
- Our field is known for having confusing terms, words or acronyms that sound similar and are related but the core mean different things.
2
While subtle these differences are important.
3
The most common of these is the name of our field, user experience, UX, versus user interface, UI.
4
What's the difference?
5
Let's start with user experience, UX.
6
User experience encompasses all aspects of the end user's interaction with the company, its services, its products.
7
This means identifying and designing a solution that meets the needs of our users, regardless of medium, without fuss or bother.
8
To do this, we must consider all aspects of the user's experience from having the right information to ease of use, to quick and concise customer help.
9
This usually means collaborating across departments and merging the services of multiple disciplines, engineering, marketing, graphic or industrial design.
10
Now let's distinguish between this total user experience, UX from what specifically the user sees, the user interface, UI.
11
User interface refers to the specific visual touchpoint or asset the user interacts with.
12
Think the look, the feel, the interactivity of a digital product.
13
UI is the cosmetics of the experience, typography, color, spacing, grids, icons, buttons.
14
Now of course, UI how something looks or feels plays a big role in UX.
15
So let's think about it this way.
16
Take a look at these three different cakes.
17
Each has a different user interface, what you see, the icing, the shape, the decoration.
18
This is all UI, the presentation.
19
It's the look and the feel even the visible cues or suggestions for interaction, like these dollops that insinuate one per slice, so six slices per this cake.
20
If I turn each of these around and we take a look at the inside, this is our UX.
21
It's the cake itself.
22
It's the core of the experience whether or not the cake tastes good, delivers on expectations or needs, is fully baked and then the quality of the ingredients.
23
Now, UX and UI go hand in hand.
24
As a UX designer conducts research, identifies the user's core needs, creates task flows and works through prototypes.
25
A UI designer may compose layouts, create a visual system, and build mockups.
26
A cake would look naked without the icing and the icing has no purpose without the cake.

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?

Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
