A

Question/Answer and query dialog

17
Q

Interaction styles:
Primarily used for data entry but can also be useful in data retrieval applications.

A

Form-fills and spread sheets

18
Q

Interaction styles:
Windows, icons, menus and pointers: the default interface style for the majority of computer systems today.

A

The WIMP interface

19
Q

Interaction styles:
The PCI is closely related to the WIMP-style: pointing and clicking are the only action required to access information

A

Point-and-click interfaces

20
Q

Interaction styles:
