Write a short proposal describing what type of user interface would be appropriate for the users of the project reporting system who are in the training group. Include reasons for your decision

Question

What will be an ideal response?

Answer 1

The interfaces designed for the Training Unit would ideally be a graphical user interface (G U I) and ideally would use a Web interface. The Training Unit is familiar with Shiromas (Macintosh clones) which use a G U I interface and there will be less resistance to change. If a G U I interface cannot be constructed, pull-down menus would be the next logical choice. Again, the Shiroma computers include a pull-down menu interface. Additionally, the interface should provide adequate feedback and include context-sensitive help and perhaps incorporate the use of wizards. One has to remember that the Training Unit is comprised of people who are artists and trainers, more occasional users of the computer for business activities. It should also have an easy interface for the users to generate reports.
