Behavioral data is ubiquitous in products, services, and systems that people interact with. It is increasingly used by design and HCI researchers and practitioners throughout their human-centered and participatory design processes. The highly dynamic nature of behavioral data makes it deeply intertwined with people, their behavior, and their experiences. Thus, it presents unique opportunities and challenges. This Special Interest Group will provide a space to refect and discuss efective and responsible ways to engage with behavioral data in human-centered design processes. We will explore questions about the types and scale of data used, the contexts in which data is embedded and applied, the methods we rely on, and the forms of engagement of the multiple stakeholders. In doing so, our goal is to collaboratively develop a research agenda, setting the scope for an annual, international symposium on Data-Centric Design.

“…CITE está basado en DataBlocks [Bloques de datos] (Jofre et al, 2016;Jofre et al 2015), lo que combina los beneficios de las interacciones tangibles con representaciones gráficas para crear un entorno de aprendizaje interactivo. En este sistema los usuarios crean consultas al ubicar objetos claramente demarcados (que pueden tomarse con una sola mano) sobre un tablero, y los resultados de la consulta aparecen en una pantalla situada a un extremo del tablero.…”

Ivan Illich famously coined the term «tools for conviviality» in which he refers to tools that encourage individual creativity and expression, and that can be adapted to people’s needs and situations. This paper describes the design of an interactive adaptable tool, whose applications include education and game play, and contextualizes it within Illich’s framework. The Collaborative Interactive Tabletop for Education (CITE), currently being developed at SUNY Polytechnic, allows users to manipulate digital information through the manipulation of hand-held tabletop objects. Such interfaces, known as Tangible User Interfaces (TUI), are believed to have significant advantages over traditional screen-based interfaces. For example, they have been shown to measurably increase collaborative behavior among users. However, TUIs have not been widely adopted, perhaps because most current TUI designs require some kind of specialized hardware. Our approach is to instead create a system, a set of verified instructions along with open-license software packages, for adapting any combination of standard computer hardware into a highly customizable interactive tabletop.

“…Tangible designs encompass a range of geometries, such as globes [66], cylinders [36] and customized scale models that mimic real-wrold structures [13,31,65]. Among these diverse shapes, cubes have emerged as a particularly prominent form, attracting considerable research attention due to their unique affordances and versatile applications [18,60].…”
