© 2009 University of California, Irvine – André van der Hoek Today’s Lecture Reflection Design Studio I continued April 5, 2019 – 06:37:38 © 2009 University of California, Irvine – André van der Hoek

© 2009 University of California, Irvine – André van der Hoek Reflection How does this compare to the previous design exercise, the electronic info portal? April 5, 2019 – 06:37:38 © 2009 University of California, Irvine – André van der Hoek

© 2009 University of California, Irvine – André van der Hoek Reflection What kinds of design did you find yourself practicing? application? interaction? architecture? implementation? maintenance? April 5, 2019 – 06:37:38 © 2009 University of California, Irvine – André van der Hoek

© 2009 University of California, Irvine – André van der Hoek Reflection Did you use different methods and/or different representations for each of these? How did you choose your methods/representations? What questions did you try to answer with these representations?

© 2009 University of California, Irvine – André van der Hoek Reflection What are the three key design concerns that you addressed? Where lies the essence of each of the three design concerns? April 5, 2019 – 06:37:38 © 2009 University of California, Irvine – André van der Hoek

© 2009 University of California, Irvine – André van der Hoek Reflection How easy was it to treat each concern in isolation of the others? How easy was it to think of three partial designs for a given concern in isolation of the other concerns? How “deep” did you feel you needed to design for each concern?

© 2009 University of California, Irvine – André van der Hoek Reflection How easy was it to choose the best qualities of the three partial designs for each concern, and bring them together? per concern for the entire design Any tradeoffs that you needed to address as part of bringing these solutions together? How much of the entire solution do you think you have put together now? What is still lacking/missing? April 5, 2019 – 06:37:38 © 2009 University of California, Irvine – André van der Hoek

© 2009 University of California, Irvine – André van der Hoek Reflection Looking back at your process, did you – consciously or subconsciously – follow the design cycle? April 5, 2019 – 06:37:38 © 2009 University of California, Irvine – André van der Hoek

© 2009 University of California, Irvine – André van der Hoek Reflection How understandable do you think your design is? by you? by your team mates? by others? April 5, 2019 – 06:37:38 © 2009 University of California, Irvine – André van der Hoek

Design Studio I Continued Your team will receive 9 partial designs (3 partial designs per 3 concerns) from 2 other teams (18 total partial designs) Individually, write 6 short reviews. For each team you received designs from, for each of their 3 concerns, choose one partial solution and write a paragraph or two describing: your confidence in its quality elegance of the solution it embeds usefulness of the representation chosen overall understandability Coordinate the partial design assignments among your team mates so that each partial design is covered by at least one person The idea that we filter them here.

Design Studio I Continued Due Thursday at the beginning of class Bring two copies The idea that we filter them here. April 5, 2019 – 06:37:38 © 2009 University of California, Irvine – André van der Hoek
