the Access file or the .zip file. 1. First-Interactive
Prototype: McInterface1.mdb
(2.99 MB), McInterface1.zip (0.98
MB) 2. Second-Interactive
Prototype: McInterface2.mdb

Instructions
on How to Run the Prototypes
Instructions and Tips:
2. Open the file
3. Start using the
interface. Since we cannot implement the design on a real touch-screen, you
can use a mouse as your pointing device. However, you can evaluate the interface
based on the fact that it will be used with a touch-screen.
4. The prototype is designed for an 8" x 9" touch screen. For the
testing, however, if your screen minus all the toolbars in Access is smaller
than this area, you will need to scroll.
5. On the first page, 'Start[Sp]' means the word 'Start' written in Spanish,
and 'Start[Ch]' means the word 'Start' written in Chinese.
6. The pictures
do not reflect the real images of the items.
7. If you have any questions regarding the terms used in the menu, see our
revised vocabulary section.
