Evaluate the user dialog strategies used by a menu-driven interface.

Assignment 2: Menu Selection

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.

Your assignment must follow these formatting requirements:

· Be typed, double spaced, using Times New Roman font (size 12), with one-inch margins on all sides; citations and references must follow APA or school-specific format. Check with your professor for any additional instructions.

NATURAL RESOURCE DEPLETION

I live by a lot of Diary Farms/Beef Farms, so I want the topic to be the OUTPUT OF METHANE GASES PRODUCED BY THESES COWS. ( COW FARTS )

Location for reference is the Central Valley in California.

Imagine that you have been asked to educate the members of your community on this environmental issue.
