Explain what is meant by a cognitive user model, give an overview of the range of models available and indicate the usefulness of such models
Distinguish between the high-level (GOMs) and low-level (KLM) cognitive models.
Produce GOMs and KLM analyses of simple user tasks.
Show how GOMs and KLM can be used to analyse an existing system or proposed design.
