IV.

Work/Practice Exercise

Exercise 1. You draw a concept map that explains the importance of HCI in the box
given. Then, discuss your drawing.

Concept Map
Information
Architecture

Design HCI Usability

Software
Engineering

Discussions
- As you can see in my concept map for me this the 4 importance when it comes from
HCI. The Information Architecture is the structural design of shared information
environments that are organizing labeling websites, software to support usability
and findability and many more. Usability is concerned with making systems easy to
learn, easy to use, and with limiting error frequency and severity. The Software
Engineering is concerned with methods and tools for the development of human-
computer interfaces, assessing the usability of computer systems and with broader
issues about how people interact with computers. And the last is the Design, Design
is considered as a problem-solving process that has components like planned
usage, target area, resources, cost, and viability.

Exercise 2. List down the Seven (7) Principles of HCI and its importance. Provide an
example for each principle of HCI through an illustration (examples should not be taken
from the lecture notes)

PRINCIPLES OF IMPORTANCE EXAMPLES


HCI
1. Know Thy User You should understand the Examples your target user
need of the user on your are the students. You
desired work and design what should make some of work
is the best for them. that based on learning new
things that help the user in
their studies.

2. Understand the The task analysis should Example making websites


Task know the detail on their work based on uploading file
and to know the work of the and to store it for a long
user by teaming up and time. The task analysis
achieve the goals they should understand the task
wanted. and to support the work of
the website designer.

3. Reduce Memory This principle makes the Example the apps that are
Load easier way to less memory very simple, classic and
load. can make you satisfied
than the apps that are
heavy and so much design
but there is the same.

PRINCIPLES OF IMPORTANCE EXAMPLES


HCI
4. Strive for Using the same design Example you make a
Consistency patterns and the same website that the
sequences of actions for background color is black
similar situations. and there is a setting and a
search button. When you
update it, you can change
the color of the
background and make the
setting and search much
more responsive than the
previous one.

5. Remind Users It is a reminds the user to see Example when you


and Refresh Their the feedback of their ordered at Shopee the
Memory interaction of the used receipt or the feedback you
app/website. get is the example of it.

6. Prevent This the best to make the Example when you make
Errors/Reversal of user satisfied to simply give a a website you should state
Action name of every icon or words the name or specific icon
that the are curiously going to that the user can
click to prevent errors. understand properly and
the prevent mistakes of
their work.

7. Naturalness Naturalness is a principle that Example when you are
make your work as simple or creating websites that are
natural as stated. record your blood pressure
and to say that you are
healthy or not, but you
should type what is your
blood pressure is.

Exercise 3. Choose an electronic device that you can see at home. From the chosen
device, you assess its characteristics and functionalities. Then provide your answer on
the following items:

Name of the Chosen Electronic Device: Flash Drive

Screen shots

Human Computer Interaction |5


1. Characteristics and functionalities:

Flash drive is data storage device that can store data depends on the size and it can
use to data back-up and transferring of computer files. When you see it, they
are small, durable, and reliable. The larger their storage space, the faster they tend
to operate.

2. With its design and functionalities, has the device achieved the goal of HCI?
Explain your answer.

Yes, because if they are usable, safe, and functional they are already achieved the
goal of HCI. And it can help the user also, so it is a best electronic device for me.

3. Does it have a good HCI design? Explain your answer

For me it is not bad, and it is not good also to show that this thing is best HCI design.
But because it is small and we don’t have an intention to make it more design of it,
for me I’m satisfied with the design and the functionalities to make it user friendly.
