Blog Assignment 5

A user’s mental model with respect to an object’s personality and surrounding interactions can be explanations of a user’s thought process about how things work in the real world. The user’s mental model is generally what people experience and what people see or use. Simply, it is just what people feel of certain object. This mental model can contrast with the implementation model of the programmers because the implementation model is what programmers feature while everyone’s mental model can differ. While the implementation model can cause confusing features or features that do not make sense to some people, the mental model won’t have problems like those due to different perspectives of people. There is a little chance of the programmers having the same understanding as that of the users for certain product.
