Bad and good instructions:

Bad example:

instructions

  • The instruction set is about making a necklace out of a t shirt. However, it does not provide any introduction that can provide the user with more insight of what they are going to make.
  • The set has no list of materials or any warnings for the user to be aware of.
  • The instructions seem simple but they are not explicit to follow.

Good example:

The above instruction set is good because it provides the user with detailed information on how to adjust an electric car seat. The user manual also provides the locations at which is instruction is directed to which makes it easy for the user to easily understand and follow.
