Show and Tell: Research Through Design Dr Raymond Holt Insitute of Design, Robotics and Optimisation School of Mechanical Engineering, University of Leeds R.J.Holt@leeds.ac.uk
Research through Design I work with children and therapists to design rehabilitative games. Working with users to denerate and evaluate their ideas helps me to better understand their views and needs.
Together Through Play Goal: Investigate aspirations of disabled and non-disabled children for playing together, and barriers to their doing so.
Methodology Engineering Children Sociology Initial Interviews Ideation Test Lo-Fi Prototypes Test Hi-Fidelity Prototypes Sociological Analysis Emerging themes, interpretations Create Lo-Fi Prototypes Create Hi-Fi Prototypes Lo-fi prototypes views on play Game Concepts Responses to Lo-fi prototypes Hi-fi prototypes Observations, transcripts Participants: 22 Children aged 7 to 10: 6 disabled. Barriers to play
Outcomes: Designs Lo-Fi Hi-Fi
Final Outcome BUTTON BASH
Research through Design More General Application design as a tool for talking Practitioner(s) End users Artifact Contributions Design principles, know-足how & knowledge Contribution to the current ensemble being designed Utility for users Alpha design & prototype Researcher(s) Beta design & prototype Participants (adapted from Sein et al, 2011)
So What? For Today: Aim is to better understand problems - not necessarily generate solutions though solutions are good, too! Get dialogue going raise awareness of opportunities for bespoke manufacture, engaging users in designing the world around them. Next Steps: Students at UoL to take ideas forward as part of their dissertations. Opportunities to look at how we develop future projects grants, etc. Discuss how partners can work together in future to build on the findings.
