Conduct a small experiment on icon recognition, as follows.

Find 5-10 computer users


(participants) and enquire as to their computer experience. Find users with a range of computing
experience (e.g., less than 10 hours per week, more than 25 hours per week. Preferably, find an
equal number of participants for each experience level.) Prepare a handout sheet with the six
toolbar buttons (soft controls) seen in Figure 3.3a. The general idea is shown below:

Ask each participant to identify the purpose of the buttons. Record the responses. Write a brief
report on the findings, showing and discussing the responses for participants overall and for
participants by button and by experience level
