软件现在可以跟踪您使用的计算机应用程序和文档。这为我们提供了帮助最终用户回忆过去的活动以执行状态报告等任务的潜力。我们描述了八名参与者在撰写他们的状态报告时的实地观察结果。我们观察到了有趣的趋势,包括对记忆触发的依赖,这些触发要么来自外显的自我提醒,要么来自执行任务时留下的隐性面包屑,要么直接来自记忆。参与者认为花在撰写状态报告上的时间相对较短,这表明任何技术解决方案都必须在当前实践的基础上进行重大改进。
Software can now track which computer applications and documents you use. This provides us with the potential to help end-users recall past activities for tasks such as status reporting. We describe findings from field observations of eight participants writing their status reports. We observed interesting trends, including the reliance on memory triggers, which were either retrieved from explicit self-reminders, from implicit breadcrumbs left while performing their tasks or directly from memory. Participants perceived spending relatively short amounts of time composing their status reports, suggesting that any technology solution must offer dramatic improvements over current practice.
