In-class activity 20 min to read the FrameWire paper by Li et al. from CHI 2010 Answer the following questions: – What was the problem? – How did they go about solving it? (e.g., methods, evaluation) – How did they reflect upon their practice? (e.g., admitting limitations) – What aspects of this paper relate to this course? (e.g., paper prototypes)

How to read a paper Three passes: 1.Abstract  Intro  Conclusions What the paper is about? 2.Rest of the sections but only topic sentences. Main arguments but omit the “whys”. E.g., “We built a 900-sqrft dog house” not the why. 3.Read every word, asking yourself “If I were to re- create a system like this, would I have done it differently?” To critique. Advantages, disadvantages, etc.
