Problem : Implementation of advanced interactivity simulation is HARD for designers

1. Problem : • Implementation of advanced interactivity simulation is HARD for designers • Particularly, logical and procedural thinking in PROGRAMMING • Importance : • 1. Products are getting intelligent. --> frequent and important Behavior Prototyping • 2. Communication miss and lack of agility between engineers(maker) and designers(planner). • 3. Designers require Reflective Thinking by self-prototyping. • Q : How can designers learn programming? • compared to traditional CS approach.

2. Q: How can designers learn programming? Why different from traditional CS? Motivation Range of prototyping ( learning scope ) Pedagogy

3. Q: How we can educate designers in programming? • Why different from traditional CS? • Design prototyping differs from computer science, electronic engineering, mechanics. • We need all. We need compromise.Integration, trade-off, Decision making • Design mind( trial/error , ) • Aiming at emotion and communication rather than efficiency

4. Q: How we can educate designers in programming? • Motivation? • How can we let designers understand the importance of programming in interaction design?Probably they do. • Even in product design.Probably not.

5. Q: How we can educate designers in programming? • Range of prototyping ( learning scope ) • Prototyping should trigger reflective thinking. • Exceptions are not big deal. Often helpful. Targeting Range Non-Linear Interactive Movie Prototype Interactive Prototype Exception-Free Prototype

6. Q: How we can educate designers in programming? • Pedagogy • Object Role Playing • Pseudo-Coding

7. Do something worth – Pilot Prototype • Select product.Firefighters’ Thermal Imaging Camerarequirements and situations. • Specify functions.Brainstorm with design studentsSpecify functions, forms, and interaction flow(?). • Prototype by 3 parties.Me, CS person, and designer. • Analyze.What are differences??

8. Do something worth – Pilot Prototype • Select Product. • Firefighters’ Thermal Imaging Camera • Rosenbauer Argus 4 FutureScience F2 • Extreme situation: • Hot, Sweaty, Gloved, and Smoky • Requirements: • Easy to grasp and hang on. Big buttons. Correct. Quick.

9. Do something worth – Pilot Prototype • 2. Specify functions. • Brainstormwith design students. • Specify functions, form, input, and output elements. • Describe interaction flow. • OUTPUT: description, few drawings, and/or any means which explain INTERACTION and PRODUCT. • Choosing a design is not a part of prototyping, but describing a design is very important process for prototyping and base logics of the program. • The way output describes the interaction may be the critical point in design mind.

10. Do something worth – Pilot Prototype • 3. Prototype by 3 parties • Researcher: • Get base knowledge. • CS people: • See how they understand interaction flows in designers words. • See how they overcome obstacles. • See how they start and organize the programming. • Designers: See what are main obstacles. • See how they start and organize the programming.
