Download or read book Human Software written by Jacob Stephens and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2023-07-06 with total page 119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Human Software is a book of poems, complemented with witty commentary and beautiful art. The poetry reflects how information is delivered, processed, and received throughout a lifetime. It takes the reader through a gutsy exploration of American psychology, history, art, science, religion, nature, current affairs, gender studies, and cultural/social studies. Additionally, the beautiful, unfiltered art drives home the raw feelings and emotions being explored throughout the book. The increasing social disturbances in America since 2016 motivated Jacob Stephens to combine his skills teaching civics with his love of writing poetry in the hopes of bettering his family and humanity. The urgency to replace toxic ideologies and indoctrination with love, tolerance, and scientific discovery motivates this poetry. Changing the hearts and minds of his family, friends, and humanity, so we can have a more peaceful and equitably prosperous future, is Stephens’s greatest passion. As evidenced by human history and the author’s own experiences, writing and art has the capacity to change the world. All it needs is for good people to lift it up and shout it out.

This book was released on 2006-06-26 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Human-CenteredSoftwareEngineering: BridgingHCI,UsabilityandSoftwareEngineering From its beginning in the 1980’s, the ?eld of human-computer interaction (HCI) has beende?nedasamultidisciplinaryarena. BythisImeanthattherehas beenanexplicit recognition that distinct skills and perspectives are required to make the whole effort of designing usable computer systems work well. Thus people with backgrounds in Computer Science (CS) and Software Engineering (SE) joined with people with ba- grounds in various behavioral science disciplines (e. g. , cognitive and social psych- ogy, anthropology)inaneffortwhereallperspectiveswereseenasessentialtocreating usable systems. But while the ?eld of HCI brings individuals with many background disciplines together to discuss a common goal - the development of useful, usable, satisfying systems - the form of the collaboration remains unclear. Are we striving to coordinate the varied activities in system development, or are we seeking a richer collaborative framework? In coordination, Usability and SE skills can remain quite distinct and while the activities of each group might be critical to the success of a project, we need only insure that critical results are provided at appropriate points in the development cycle. Communication by one group to the other during an activity might be seen as only minimally necessary. In collaboration, there is a sense that each group can learn something about its own methods and processes through a close pa- nership with the other. Communication during the process of gathering information from target users of a system by usability professionals would not be seen as so- thing that gets in the way of the essential work of software engineering professionals.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Activity theory is a way of describing and characterizing the structure of human - tivity of all kinds. First introduced by Russian psychologists Rubinshtein, Leontiev, and Vigotsky in the early part of the last century, activity theory has more recently gained increasing attention among interaction designers and others in the hum- computer interaction and usability communities (see, for example, Gay and H- brooke, 2004). Interest was given a signi?cant boost when Donald Norman suggested activity-theory and activity-centered design as antidotes to some of the putative ills of “human-centered design” (Norman, 2005). Norman, who has been credited with coining the phrase “user-centered design,” suggested that too much attention focused on human users may be harmful, that to design better tools designers need to focus not so much on users as on the activities in which users are engaged and the tasks they seek to perform within those activities. Although many researchers and practitioners claim to have used or been in?uenced by activity theory in their work (see, for example, Nardi, 1996), it is often dif?cult to trace precisely where or how the results have actually been shaped by activity theory. Inmanycases, evendetailedcasestudiesreportresultsthatseemonlydistantlyrelated, if at all, to the use of activity theory. Contributing to the lack of precise and traceable impact is that activity theory, - spite its name, is not truly a formal and proper theory.
