Answer 1

The environment has a big impact on your interaction with the computer, since humans are bound to be emotional and in some cases may bring them to their performance to work. One example would be in a crowded and noisy room and you are typing an article, for some person (like me) would prefer a quite room to concentrate because it can distract you from your work, in my case I mistype the words and sometimes forget the next word.

There are also cases where we prefer that no one is looking on us and on the monitor we are using when we are working because we get conscious and we make mistakes, in my experience when I was making a video, my gestures and hands were compromised because of the eyes looking at my lappie’s LCD, I cannot do what I want since I am conscious of the eyes watching my work. (hehe).

Talking about the social environment I am with, the presence and usage of the technology specially computers is widely in common. The influence of computer gaming is one of the major reasons of the Human-Computer interaction, and also, these interactions are present due to the profession i had chosen.

Through the extensive usage of this technology, organizations whether commercial nor academic had grown popular. Academic organizations had been requiring the knowledge about computers, which includes the usage of these devices to meet certain school requirements. These organizations had contributed a lot on the interaction, some of its effects are addiction, knowledge and the growth of technology.
