6. Recognition Rather Than Recall
===6. Recognition Rather Than Recall===
 
If I ask you '''What’s the Capital of Canada?''' I am forcing you to recall the answer. It's much easier if I asked you '''Is Ottawa the capital of Canada?''' because you only need to recognize the answer.

Don’t make your users think, reduce the cognitive load on users by asking them to recognize over recall any information. Ask yourself: can my users easily recognize the appropriate actions they need to take?
