Hey, Here's your answer, hope you will like it.
We know that the main usages of HCI are to have usable, safe,
and functional systems.
Usability: It is one of the key concepts in
HCI. as we are concerned to make systems easy to learn and use.
Now, let's discuss 5 factors to measure usability.
1). Effectiveness:
- It is about the accuracy that we should have high accuracy in
which users can perform their goals.
- The product which is performing should be able to support the
user.
- It is good to use simpler and clear language for communication
to increase the probability of understanding.
2). Efficiency:
- we should not be confused between efficiency and effectiveness,
both are quite different and our ultimate goal is to achieve
both.
- As we know, effectiveness is all about accuracy while
efficiency is all about the speed that how fast we can finish the
task.
- Here, we have seen the number of steps needed to achieve the
goal and if we can reduce them by anyhow, then we can have an
efficient system.
3). Engagement:
- This is the case we want to achieve, in which the user is
totally satisfied with the product.
- Yes, aesthetics and UI elements are very important here.
- Engagement is not only about good looking, but it is the
satisfaction of user where user can perform its task and achieve
the goal.
4). Error Tolerance:
- In HCI, we generally refer error tolerance as when we encounter
an error in the system then the users should be able to quickly
recover from it and get back the respective work.
- Human errors are natural we can't stop them we can make a
system in which we can easily handle the errors and can easily
recover from it.
- Tolerance simply refers to the power to make the system in
which we can achieve the goals easily by easily handling the
difficulties.
5). Ease of Learning:
- Sometimes it is really hard for them to understand and stick to
product regularly.
- So if we can make a product that can easily be used by the user
then the interaction will be really easy when they use it.
- It is also beneficial when we are updating many new features in
the product.
