Mumbai University/BE/IT/User Interaction Design/Understanding and Conceptualizing Interaction, Cognitive aspects and Social, Emotional Interaction/Multiple Choice Questions - Part 2

Hello Everyone!
This article is based on the common Multiple Choice Questions related to User Interaction Design. The MCQs are based on the Second Module - (a) Understanding and Conceptualizing Interaction and (b) Cognitive aspects and Social, Emotional Interaction.

From the University Exam point of view, these MCQs were given as question bank in the 2020 Mumbai University - BE - Information Technology Exam for the subject - User Interaction Design. The MCQs set is prepared from taking different cluster data. These MCQs were also asked in the 2021 Final and Internal Examinations. These MCQs are also related to the subject Human Computer Interaction.

The topics included in this module are -

• Understanding the Problem space and conceptualizing Design
• Conceptual Model
• Interface Types
• Cognitive aspects
• Social Interaction and Emerging Social Phenomena
• Emotions and the User Experience
• Expressive and Frustrating Interfaces
• Persuasive Technologies
