Abstract
Scenarios of use support the integration of cognitive and organization al approaches to human-computer interaction (HCI) by providing a rich representation of activity from which cognitive and organizational per spectives can be developed. In this paper, a 'cognitive' approach to s cenario-based analysis and design-one focused on causal relationships implicit in episodes of individual problem-solving and learning-is ext ended by emphasizing an organizational work view of social causes and effects.
