Despite being a fairly old
technology, menu-driven interfaces are very common in user interface design.
Menu-driven interfaces consist of a series of screens which are navigated by
choosing options from lists.
Write a four to five (4-5)
page paper in which you:
1.
Evaluate the user dialog
strategies used by a menu-driven interface.
2.
Determine why menu-driven
interfaces continue to be popular in the modern computing age.
3.
Suggest at least three (3)
strategies for making menu-driven interfaces visually appealing in the modern
computing environment.
4.
Suggest alternatives for
menu-driven interface design and explain how these alternatives can be designed
to eventually replace all menu-driven interfaces.
5.
Use at least three (3) quality
resources in this assignment. Note: Wikipedia and similar Websites do not
qualify as quality resources.
