03 Task Performance 1

This document provides instructions for a task that asks students to research recent technological developments related to human-computer interaction. Students are asked to summarize the features of three technologies and explain how they satisfy human capabilities and interface with aspects of human performance. Students are also asked to conceptualize a new technological innovation that would satisfy basic cognitive and ergonomic human capabilities. The task aims to help students describe how interfaces suit user capabilities and demonstrate how HCI principles relate to human factors.

Task Performance
Human Factors in HCI
Objectives:

At the end of the exercise, the students should be able to:

 Describe how an interface will suit the user’s various capabilities; and
 Prove that HCI principles are naturally derived from human factors.

Materials:

 One (1) personal computer with a pre-installed Google Chrome and Microsoft Word
 Internet connection

Instructions:

1. Create a new document on Microsoft Word with the filename 03TP_LastName_FirstName (e.g.,
03TP_Reyes_Mika). This will serve as your answer sheet and will be collected by your instructor.

2. Open Google Chrome and search for at least three (3) technological developments and/or innovations
from 2017 to present, which are related to human-computer interaction. Then, provide answers for the
following items for each development/innovation in the answer sheet:
a. Title of the technology/innovation (2 points)
b. Image of the technology/innovation (3 points)
c. Enumerate the features of the technology/innovation and explain how the feature satisfies
various human capabilities. (Essay: 10 points)
d. Explain the connection of the interactive interface of the technology/innovation with different
aspects of human performance, such as cognitive capability, ergonomics capability, and HCI
principles. (Essay: 10 points)
e. References in APA Style Citation format. (5 points)

3. After researching, conceptualize a feasible technological innovation or think of possible development

for an existing technology in line with any industry (e.g., entertainment, healthcare services, educational
services, etc.), which will satisfy the basic cognitive and/or ergonomic capabilities of human. Explain
your idea through an essay using at least five (5) sentences. (10 points)
