Questionnaires are among the tools most commonly used by human factors and ergonomics professionals. There are many commercially available tools that can assist HF professionals in the production of questionnaires and collection of data. Four commercially available tools for the construction of Internet-based questionnaires were selected and evaluated for their use in human factors. This product review compares relevant features and provides recommendations on the value and usefulness of these tools.

Microsoft PowerPoint© allows designers to create medium fidelity interface prototypes. This paper describes how PowerPoint© can easily be used to create dynamic displays that are interactive and provide animation, when resources do not permit the purchase of computer-based prototyping software and the design requires more than a pencil-and-paper prototype. With PowerPoint©, designers can create interactive displays by hyperlinking objects to connect multiple slides. Additionally, animations can be created by using the same principles that govern children's “flip books”.
