HCI and MIS

What does HCI stand for?

Which of the following is a key objective of HCI?

• Maximizing profits for tech companies

• Creating user-friendly and efficient computer systems

• Minimizing user interaction with computers

• Limiting the scope of computer science

What is the significance of HCI in technology design and development?

• It focuses on increasing profits for tech companies

• It enhances user experience and increases productivity

• It restricts the use of computer technology

• It limits innovation in the tech industry

Which milestone in HCI history introduced visual elements such as icons, windows, and menus?

• Invention of the mouse

• Introduction of touchscreens

• Development of graphical user interfaces (GUIs)

• Emergence of mobile computing

What role does psychology play in HCI?

• It helps design interfaces that are visually appealing

• It focuses on creating ergonomic interfaces

• It provides insights into human behavior and cognition

• It contributes to the technical foundation of HCI

What is the scope of Human-Computer Interaction (HCI)?

• It focuses solely on computer science principles.

• It draws upon principles from various disciplines such as computer science, psychology, design, and ergonomics.

• It is limited to the study of computer hardware.

• It excludes the study of user behaviors and preferences.

How does HCI contribute to increased user productivity?

• By making computer systems more complex

• By creating interfaces that are difficult to use

• By designing interfaces that are intuitive and efficient

• By limiting the scope of technology

What role do design disciplines play in HCI?

• They focus on creating interfaces that are aesthetically pleasing but not functional.

• They create interfaces that are functional but not visually appealing.

• They design interfaces that are both visually appealing and functional.

• They are not involved in the design of HCI interfaces.

How has HCI impacted the development of virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR)

• It has made VR and AR interfaces less immersive.

• It has made VR and AR interfaces more difficult to use.

• It has revolutionized VR and AR interfaces, making them more immersive and interactive.

• It has had no impact on the development of VR and AR interfaces.

What is the significance of HCI in improving accessibility and inclusivity?

• It focuses on designing interfaces that are accessible only to certain user groups.

• It excludes users with disabilities from accessing technology.

• It ensures that interfaces are designed to accommodate users with diverse needs and abilities.

• It limits the use of technology to a select group of users.
