In this paper we discuss the parallels between human factors in computer systems and human factors in the classroom. We look at some of the human factors guidelines for computer system design and discuss their analogs in course design and execution. Since many of us are called upon to share our expertise in a classroom setting, perhaps we can learn from our experience with software and thus try to maximize our teaching effectiveness.
