摘要
This case history describes a study that emulated field research in the usability laboratory, a methodology for gaining some benefits of ethnography when it is not practical to visit users' environments. We used stage design techniques to create three "environments": home, office, and restaurant. In these environments, we learned some contextual information despite the controlled setting.
