INTERACTION DESIGN: DESIGN METHODOLOGY SEMINAR

...

• BLOG FEATURING:
  • READINGS & RESPONSE NOTES
    For everyone, there are several mandatory readings per session and response notes are expected for each paper and have to be uploaded on the blog (see below)by the prior Sunday evening. 
    Students are expected to discuss and comment in class based on the readings they have done prior to the class (they can be randomly called to share their perspectives).
    A reading guideline is provided to support the reading process: identify author(s), research location/institution, country, background, date, writing style, publication, context, sources, possible biases; identify words and concepts that are not familiar to you; identify questions that are emerging. See additional tips for reading academic papers by researcher Mike Ananny.
    Texts vary in length every week, this is considered part of the learning process in this class to go through a reading and gather essential ideas in a limited time.
    
    
  • Reflective notes on class discussions/learnings
    A separate 'reflective journal' is developed by each student to share learnings from the seminar. It should be in the form of an online blog/vlog/podcast (ie. WordPress, Notion, Medium, TikTok, Insta or other) to share with the public your discoveries, findings, reflections, etc.
    
    • Notes, sketches for each lesson should be included as well, with short reflections on the topics discussed 
    • The readings notes are shared on the blog or online platform
    • The journal should be structured in a generally comprehensible manner
      
      

1-TIME DELIVERABLE:TIME DELIVERABLE:

Students have to independently prepare lectures on the 2 selected texts from the week as well as 3-4 additional sources that they will research themselves. The additional sources should include academic references, from various genders, and from various countries / cultures. Case studies should be presented as well.
The presentations can be organised in different formats.
Possible presentation formats are:

• Live sketching
• Demo with prototyping
• Classic Slides presentation
• etc.

The presentation should include a 1/2-pages written discussion, sent to the instructor by the Wednesday 14.00, in the week prior to the class to get enough time for feedback and possible changes.

The paper should include title, author, date, context, summary, bibliography.

Additionally, the students presenting have to engage the class with active participation with a short exercise/task and in a discussion with 1 main question.

• WORKSHOP 
  Every week four students are in charge to design a workshop of 1h hour on the topic of the week. You will act as workshop facilitator, use existing methods or generate your own ones – and present at least 6 literature references: 4 from the given pool – and at least 2 additional sources that you research yourselves, plus case studies. These additional sources should include academic and non-academic references, from various genders, and from various countries / cultures. 
  
  The structure of the workshop should include:
