Quiz 11: Designing Interfaces and Dialogues

Interface design focuses on how information is provided to and captured from users.

The participatory design approach is the most widely used approach for designing interfaces and dialogues.

The major deliverable from system interface and dialogue design is user acceptance testing results.

Display sequence refers to the way a user can move from one display to another.

A conversation is a method by which users interact with information systems.

Command language interaction refers to a human-computer interaction method where a list of system options is provided and a specific command is invoked by user selection of a menu option.

The variations in menu design are often related to the capabilities of the development environment,the skills of the developer,and the size and complexity of the system.

A pop-up menu is a menu positioning method that places a menu near the current cursor position.

A linear menu is a menu positioning method that places the access point of the menu near the top line of the display.

One guideline for menu design is making sure that command verbs clearly and specifically describe operations.

Context-sensitive interaction is a highly intuitive human-computer interaction method whereby data fields are formatted in a manner similar to paper-based forms.

Object-based interaction is the most commonly used method for data entry and retrieval in business-based systems.

Menus are the most common method for implementing object-based interaction.

The most fundamental and widely used interaction device is the keyboard.

The selection of devices users will use for interaction is made during implementation.

A trackball is a small vertical lever mounted on a base that steers the cursor on a computer display.

When using a touch screen,usability problems may occur in the areas of visual blocking,user fatigue and movement scaling.

When using a light pen,usability problems may occur in the areas of movement scaling,durability,and adequate feedback.

When using a mouse,usability problems may occur in the areas of movement scaling and adequate feedback.

When comparing input devices,a mouse is the most accurate for text selection.

When comparing input devices,a touch screen is the most preferred for data entry.

Data entry displays should be consistently formatted across applications to speed data entry and reduce errors.

Referencing interface layout guidelines,the standard screen navigation that users use to move between fields should be from left-to-right and top-to-bottom.

Referencing interface layout guidelines,data fields should be grouped into logical categories with labels describing the contents of the category.

Referencing interface layout guidelines,users should not be able to access areas of the screen not used for data entry or commands.

When designing the navigation procedures within a system,the primary concerns are dialogue flow and the instructional features.

Referencing interface layout guidelines,data should not be permanently saved by the system until the user makes an explicit request to do so.

Functional capabilities for providing smooth and easy navigation within a form include cursor-control,editing,exit,and help capabilities.

When structuring data entry,users should be required to enter the current date and time.

When structuring data entry fields,captions are not always necessary.

When structuring data entry fields,the system should automatically justify data entries.

When an appending data error has occurred,characters have been lost from the field.

When a transcripting data error occurs,additional characters have been added to a field.

The values validation test makes sure that values come from a standard set of values.

The size validation test checks for too few or too many characters.

The range validation test makes sure that data are reasonable for a situation.

A reasonableness validation test checks to see if a social security number is exactly nine digits.

An expected values validation test checks to see if there is a quantity field on each line item of a customer order.

An audit trail is a record of the sequence of data entries and the date of those entries.

System feedback provides status information,prompting cues,and error or warning messages.

Error messages should appear in roughly the same format and placement each time.

When designing usable help,use lists to break information into manageable pieces.

Conversation refers to the sequence of interaction between a user and a system.

Transition diagramming is a formal method for designing and representing human-computer dialogues using box and line diagrams.

Building dialogue prototypes and assessing usability are often optional activities.

When designing interfaces for Internet-based electronic commerce applications,the lack of maturity of Web scripting and programming languages and the limitations in commonly used Web GUI component libraries create problems for interface designers.

Placing a menu in the same location on every Web page helps customers to more quickly become familiar with a Website and more rapidly navigate through the site.

When designing the interface and dialogues of Websites,complex URLs,orphan pages,and lack of navigation support are common errors.

Web tabbing is a technique for showing users where they are in a Website by placing a series of "tabs" on a Web page that shows the users where they are and where they have been.

Cookie crumbs allow users to navigate to a point previously visited and will assure that they are not lost.
