“ Computer programs emerge as the outcome of complex human processes of cognition, communication and negotiation, which serve to establish the meaningful embedding of the computer system in its intended use context. ”

Brogmus, George, Robertson, Michelle and Smith, David B. D. (1989): Instructional Interfacing of Human Factors Microcomputer Workload Analysis Software. In: Proceedings of the Human Factors Society 33rd Annual Meeting 1989. p. 1164.

“PC-based analytical design, assessment and simulation tools for human factors are coming into increased use. However this software, designed for application and the specialist, is usually not well adapted for educational use by the inexperienced student. The purpose of this project was to focus on the instructional interface between available computer-based human factors programs and the student. With the aid of prototype software tools, a computer-aided instruction (CAI) program has been developed that is user-friendly, and provides an interface compatible in format with the program software. The CAI program that will be demonstrated is an instructional interface to a workload assessment program. The CAI also provides definition of workload assessment parameters and information on interpretation of analysis results. The workload analysis program was developed to enable users to efficiently analyze the stresses put on workers required to lift objects of various weight, origins, and destinations. Pilot tests have been conducted, and the preliminary results indicate that the CAI serves as a good refresher prior to executing the workload program. In addition to demonstrating this CAI program, the developers will be available to discuss the use of prototype software tools for facilitating CAI.”
