2. Background Cross-institutional teaching & research collaboration: –DJCAD at The University of Dundee –T-Labs, Deutsche Telekom, Berlin, Germany (Funding Supplier) Master of Design (MDes) International & inter-disciplinary team with varying levels of experience

3. Research Context Investigating the case transfer approach: –Other approaches to innovation –Design knowledge within existing artefacts –Local, Regional and Long-Distance Transfer Rip + Mix: a design method emerging from case transfer –Builds on these previous arguments –Aims to further develop and test the approach (Chow 2008 & 2009) Operational issues –Design cycle, milestones, face-to-face meetings –Student stipends, assessments –Content management system & documentation

4. Aims and objectives explore case transfer as a method to develop new designs for information and communication products and services for older people research and disseminate new design methods through collaboration between academics, postgraduate students and an external partner to provide unique learning opportunity for MDes students

6. Rip1 - Exploration Collect existing Information and Communication Products and Services (ICPS) for older people Sort the collection into groups (intuitively) Choose an archetype from each group Analyse and describe the design principles that underlie each archetype

7. Rip2 - Development Collect existing ICPS for people who are similar to older people Intuitively sort the collection into groups. Choose ICPS that are different from existing ICPS for older people Analyzing in words and sketches the chosen ICPS

8. Rip3 – Mix and Transfer Transfer the formal and material elements Descriptors: form, material, infrastructure, stakeholders and function Mix and transfer to make something NEW

9. Rip3 – Where’s my bus? RIP 1 Digital Radio The broadcasting function of radio RIP 2 Bus Stop The act of waiting at a bus stop Mix A service that speaks to the user through the radio informing them when the bus is nearby

10. Rip3 – Shake n’ News When the e-paper is physically shaken the content changes Mix: The playful interaction of an ‘Etch A’ Sketch and the material and form of a newspaper

11. Rip3 – Mix and Transfer

12. Graduate Attributes

13. Future Development Potential Rip+Mix: –Creative workshops –Evaluate in a commercial context –Develop visualisation methods –Develop educational and professional tools –Strategic alignment (filtering ideas) Curriculum: –Enhancing live projects –Feeding back into the system (360 degrees) –Employability –Pedagogy research –Design as research
