Describe the impact that the social environment in which you work has on your interaction with the computer?
Please clearly segregate the topics with sub headings.
Management pressure – (e.g. is the interaction carried out in
the presence of management?)
Organizational goals – (e.g. what is the objective of the
organization? How does this affect the interaction?)
Work context – (e.g. is the work place shared? Are the computers
shared?)
Peer pressure – (e.g. is there pressure to compete or
impress?)
Motivation – (e.g. what motivates the interaction? Does this encourage or discourage experimentation?)
In each case consider what influence there may be on the
interaction.
There are many things going on in the society to which we are connected. And these days we are lot of connected to social issues by media, such as news, social media, constant live update be it election, flood, any protest etc.
Management pressure - When there is lot of stress like situation eg. any protest, or increasing pices of petrol which is quiet torturing, then I can not handle pressure easily, something is there at the back of the mind and due to these I can not concentrate on fully.
Organizational goals - Though the organizational goals are met, but not with the zest or with pace as they should have been. It takes a longer time.
Work context - Here the stress increases sometimes or venting place. Stress can increase if co-workers are talking on the opposite side of our thoughts and can decrease if we are having same opinions about social issues.
Peer pressure - There is not much difference created by peer pressure. I normally keep both as different things.
Motivation - Motivational factor definitely reduces or increases depending upon the positivity or negativity of the social issue. Even if I may not have negative attitude but motivation decreases or I look out for other positive things if there is social unrest.
