HCD.6:8 - Common Anti-Patterns and How to Avoid Them

Anti-patternWhy it failsRepair
“Change the pump to a ticket queue”New nouns can preserve the same cue and answer.Change a relation or condition that alters the warranted Method or result.
“Use a real project”Production realism can add uncontrolled risk, access limits, and other human or specialist contributions.Bound the task around the target action and obtain qualified domain and safety inputs.
“Repeating the shown answer demonstrates adaptation”The repeated answer may depend on memory of that case.Keep its legitimate practice use; test adaptation through a changed condition without supplying the answer being judged.
“No help means independent”Removing legitimate references or tools can test a different contribution from later Work.Specify the exact human contribution and retain compatible support conditions.
“Always refuse if evidence is uncertain”Generic caution fails when sufficient compatible evidence supports bounded action.Pair missing-evidence and sufficient-evidence variants with explicit criteria.
“The learner got it after feedback”Corrected practice is contaminated by the feedback event.Record help and test the affected action on a changed task before stronger inference.
“Harder is more representative”Difficulty without target relevance raises burden and obscures the result.Scale complexity to current knowledge and the action being elicited.
“The answer key defines professional truth”An invented key can encode unsafe or wrong domain guidance.Obtain a qualified domain source or label stipulated teaching facts and their limits.
