When analyzing an audience, understanding their level of knowledge and familiarity with the subject matter is crucial. By understanding what the audience already knows, the designer can tailor the design to be appropriate and effective. This could involve avoiding jargon and complex terminology for a less knowledgeable audience, or delving deeper into more advanced concepts for an audience already familiar with the topic. The U in the AUDIENCE acronym stands for understanding, highlighting the importance of knowing the audience's base of knowledge when analyzing them.
