How to Prototype & Design Computer Inputs • Step 1: Review Input Requirements • Step 2: Select the GUI Controls • Step 3: Prototype the Input Screen • Step 4: If Necessary, Design or Prototype the Source Document
User Interface Design • User interface design is the specification of a conversation between the system user and the computer.
Interaction Methods and Devices • Command Language Interaction • Natural Language Interaction • Form Interaction (Fill-in-the-blank) • Key-word search • Menu Interaction • Object-Based Interaction (GUI)
Controlling Data Input • One objective of interface design is to reduce data entry errors • Role of systems analyst is to anticipate user errors and design features into the system’s interfaces to avoid, detect and correct data entry mistakes
The Process of Finalizing Design Specifications • Outcome • Set of physical design specifications • Contains detailed specifications for each part of the system
Assignment: Input/Output Design • Sample reports: outputs created from your prototype system OR your design • Sample Input forms
