SWE 205 Reading Reflection Number 3
Due Monday, February 5, 2024
- List the names of students in your group.
- Did everyone in your group contribute to the discussion
of your solutions
to this reading reflection? If not, who did not?
- Ko discusses the issue of "fairness" in her treatment
of "mediation of computation".
Can you give a specific example of a "fair" vs. and "unfair" computation?
- Ko discusses "metadata" in her treatment of "mediation of information".
Can you give a specific example of such metadata and explain
why it is important from a usability perspective?
- Ko explains that interfaces that mediate communication allow us
to convey and interpret cues for social contexts.
Using zoom as an example, give some examples of how these cues differ
in the recent online learning environment
from the face-to-face classroom experience
we are enjoying this semester -
and, by extension, how that affects usability.
