11. Human-Computer Interaction Flashcards
What is Industry 4.0?
It is a fusion between the physical and digital world, where there are new ways of doing old things and introducing new players.
What is HCI?
Study of human & intelligent artifact interaction. Discipline concerned with design, evaluation & implementation of interactive computing systems for human use, and a study of phenomena surrounding H-C interaction.
What is Kiousis’ view on Interactivity?
There are features of technology that enable interaction, but it is the human perception of the interactive technological features that make them interactive.
What is Affordance?
Action possibilities that are readily perceived by an actor. (ways to use something)
What is Gibson’s view on Affordance?
An object’s affordance exists independently from the actor’s ability to perceive it (usefulness)
What is Norman’s view on Affordance?
An actor needs to cognitively manifest the existence of an affordance; affordance is a perceived construct.
What is affordance cues?
Clues that tells us ways to use something
What are 2 principles of affordances?
1) Affordances need to be perceptible: design of object must communicate to the user how to use it (can be unintentional or must be put inside)
2) Affordances need to be intuitive: signal instead of explicitly telling the user what to do
What is the Computer Are Social Actors (CASA) Paradigm?
Social cues from computers trigger mindless responses from humans as if the computers were social actors (unconscious & does not come from a belief that they are communicating with programmers)
How to carry out CASA Research?
1) Find the literature of social rule governing human-to-human interaction
2) Replace a human partner with a technology
3) Test the re-written rule
4) Draw out implications for theory & design
