Imagine you are part of a research team tasked with creating a new educational mobile application aimed at enhancing online learning experiences. In this context, answer the following four questions. First, for understanding how users interact with a newly developed mobile application, your goal is to gather data to evaluate the usability and user satisfaction of the application. Using the concepts and methodologies discussed in Module 8 of the Human Computer Interaction: Design a Data Gathering plan for data gathering, specifying the methods you would use (e.g., interviews, questionnaires, observations) and justify your choices based on the nature of the study. Discuss how the data gathered from each method can be analyzed to provide insights into the usability and user satisfaction of the mobile application. Note: Your answer should demonstrate a clear understanding of the different data gathering techniques, their appropriate application, and the importance of ethical considerations in human-computer interaction.

Q3:Your company has just acquired a smaller company that sells office automation software. The smaller company's spreadsheet software has a large market share, with many satisfied users (the major reason for the acquisition was that these existing users are potential customers for your company's other products). Unfortunately, no documentation for the spreadsheet software can be found, and the source code is not commented. How would you go about maintaining this software to keep the customers happy?
Any adjustments to the framework that are recommended should both foresee and address any difficulties that may develop as a direct result of enforcing those alterations. Before moving on to considering several possible solutions, this issue has to be resolved first. The transition to computing in the cloud has the potential to alleviate these issues, but there is no guarantee that it will really take place. Do we really need something that is more impressive than this?
Each potential solution to the framework should include a description of the difficulties that will be experienced throughout the implementation as well as the measures that will be taken to overcome those difficulties. This must be done before you can go on to discussing how you intend to address the issues that you've discovered. It's plausible that solving these problems with cloud computing might do the trick, but is it really feasible? Should you put your attention here, or is it possible that you may just as well ignore it?
A wide range of models are used to create software, and the relevance of each model is defined by the application being produced. Could you kindly provide a personal preference to each of these models?
Each possible framework answer should include an account of the problems that will come up during execution, as well as the steps that will be taken to deal with those problems. This needs to be done before you can talk about how you plan to deal with the problems you've found. It's possible that cloud computing could help solve these problems, but is it really possible? Should you pay attention to this, or could you just as easily ignore it?
Consider the roadblocks you will encounter as you build the framework, and look into any factors that might derail a certain option. Can these problems be remedied by using cloud computing? Is there a possibility that anything unfavourable may occur?
Each proposed change to the framework should include potential roadblocks and their solutions. This has to be done before we can go on to brainstorming ways to fix the problems we've found. The idea of using cloud computing to fix these issues is appealing, but is it feasible? Compared to what, exactly, is this more crucial?
Second, when incorporating each solution, make a note of the challenges in framework development and analyze them. Issues may be solved using cloud computing. Should your attention be focused, even on situations you've experienced before?
Identify and enumerate two categories of challenges that simulation models may be employed to represent?
Think about the problems you'll run into as you build the framework, and then look into the specific challenges and obstructions associated with each solution. Is it possible that moving our computers to the cloud will make it easier to deal with these issues? Is it necessary to take this into consideration, or is it irrelevant here?
Now describe the conceptual models that underlie the design of: 1. an electronic personal calendar found on a personal organizer or handheld computer 2. a shared calendar found on the web How do they differ from the equivalent physical artifacts? What new functionality has been provided? What interface metaphors have been used? Are the functions and interface metaphor well integrated? What problems do users have with these interactive kinds of calendars? Why do you think this is?
In HCI, the term “Ergonomics” describes the: user’s perceptual, cognitive and problem-solving skills user’s physical capabilities contributes to an understanding of the wider context of the user’s interactions to produce an effective interface presentation
