“…Another project including human-centred perspectives on systems design and digitisation is the Tick Box design method, which is a fast-paced co-design workshop with large groups of children, designed by Read et al (2022), utilising lo-fi materials and sketches. A further example is the UCD sprint by Roto et al (2021) and , which involves a step-wise user-centred design process from discovery (interviews, for example) and design (such as brainstorming and lo-fi prototypes), to "reality check" (for example user tests of lo-fi prototypes); this is aimed at practitioners in software companies but could be used by others such as educators as well (Larusdottir, Roto, et al, 2023).…”

“…Shortly after I had conducted the workshop, Roto et al (2021) proposed a similar approach to teaching UCD methods that was trialled at several conferences (cf. Larusdottir, Roto, et al (2023)) but, obviously, could not be applied in the planning of the workshop. While it may seem suitable here to have adopted the "interactive co-design workshop" presented by Silva and Daniel (2019), it did not include any digital interactive prototyping.…”

Prototyping with purpose: Increasing participatory design with malleable interactive prototypes

This work emphasises the long-standing focus on democratisation in the participatory design field by analysing how participation can be achieved (the pragmatics of participation) and how participation can be increased (the politics of participation) through malleable interactive prototyping. Malleable interactive prototyping refers to the design of digital prototypes of IT systems that are open enough for a designer and a user to collaboratively design and re-design. The interactiveness allows the user to experience the interaction with the system and its design and also allows for redesign during the interaction. This type of prototyping is explored in the collaborative design of an IT system between a designer and citizens at a hospital, and in a short series of co-design workshops with young learners as designers within a component of their digital competence education in upper secondary school. Through a qualitative analysis, this work demonstrates that malleable interactive prototyping increases participation and participatory design. Four conclusions are proposed for the participatory design field: malleable interactive prototyping gives users an informed voice in the design process, allows users to collaboratively design an IT system with a designer, facilitates mutual learning between designer and user, and increases the ecological validity of the collaborative design. Furthermore, the explorations contribute to the education field by showing that malleable interactive prototyping can explicate future use and the user as well as the role of the user and the IT system for young learners, thus enabling young learners to experience democratic IT systems design processes. These conclusions suggest that school policy writers should consider including a socio-technical perspective in the computational-focused curriculum and that educators should contemplate the delivery of this education across all programmes.
