Case Study 1: User Interfaces
Due
Week 2 and worth 90 points
Early
user interfaces were designed with little or no consideration for the end user.
This was largely due to technical and hardware limitations. The poor interface
design required a specific skill set for users and limited the mass appeal of
computers. Modern interfaces are much more user friendly. Theo Mandel wrote
about the five (5) golden rules of interface design. Read Mandel’s article
located at http://www.theomandel.com/docs/Mandel-GoldenRules.pdf.
Write
a four to five (4-5) page paper in which you:
1. Describe three (3) interfaces you
interact with on a daily basis.
2. Analyze each interface you
identified in Question one (1) and assess how it adheres to Mandel’s five (5)
golden rules.
3. Suggest two (2) changes for each
interface to achieve a more user-friendly design and justify your suggestion.
4. Provide three (3) screen shots
for each interface. Note: These screen shots should be labeled and appear in
the appendix of the case study. These pages are not included in the page
requirement for the assignment.
5. Use at least three (3) quality
resources in this assignment. Note: Wikipedia and similar Websites do not
qualify as quality resources.
Your
assignment must follow these formatting requirements:
Be typed, double
spaced, using Times New Roman font (size 12), with one-inch margins on all
sides; citations and references must follow APA or school-specific format.
Check with your professor for any additional instructions.
Include a cover page
containing the title of the assignment, the student’s name, the professor’s
name, the course title, and the date. The cover page and the reference page are
not included in the required assignment page length.
The specific course
learning outcomes associated with this assignment are:
Describe the
usability properties of interactive systems.
Use technology and
information resources to research issues in human-computer interaction.
Write clearly and
concisely about HCI topics using proper writing mechanics and technical style
conventions.
