Task 3)
Create a handover document passing your website over to a potential client.
You have critically reviewed your website comparing it to
other websites that offer similar services. Take into account both positive and
negative factors in the website. Be realistic about your own abilities compared
to professional web design companies.
Now it’s time to reflect on the process and look at other
HCI developments.
Create a report (in any form you want) that looks at recent
HCI developments and how they are used. So look at mobile webs and how they
differ from their large screened PC cousins. What are the significant
differences and how and why have they come about?
How would you develop a website that could work on mobile
and full screen or are they separate, discuss this concept and give example?
This covers Unit 10:
Human Computer Interaction
The document to cover the following :
Understand recent human computer
interaction related developments and their
application
HCI: historical development;
motivation; techniques; guidelines; principles; standards.
Developments in technology: changing workstation
environments eg screens, keyboards,
pointing devices; other non
standard input/output devices eg speech recognition; related
processing developments and
information storage possibilities
Developments in HCI: examples eg virtual machines with command
line input, graphical
interfaces, screen design for
intensive data entry; intelligent HCIs; virtual personas; changing
concepts of ‘look and feel’
User issues: range of users eg expert,
regular, occasional, novice, special needs; ergonomics; human information
processing; impact on the workplace
Development of systems: new developments eg
event-driven systems, use of multimedia;
modelling techniques;
implication of new developments on user interfaces; implication of
developments on hardware eg
storage, processing requirements; convergence of systems
Applications: selection of HCIs eg
touchscreen, voice activated
