Dialogue In Participatory Design, R. Luck

DRS Biennial Conference Series

The study of participatory design has been an active research field for several decades (Cross 1971; Sanoff 1973) an acknowledgement that direct involvement in the design and decision making of physical environments has a positive influence and that there is continued value, new insight and knowledge from its investigation. During this time there has been a maturation of the subject and subtle shifts in the field: recognising participatory design as a process with many approaches and techniques, rather than a particular research method and the flexibility of participatory methodologies. Sanoff's (2000) continued involvement and development of the field have shown …

Intentionality And Design, C. Burnette

DRS Biennial Conference Series

This paper suggests that: a model of Intentionality is required in any theory of design thinking; that ”intending” is systematically informed and constrained by experience; that it is cognitively structured in terms of the source-path-goal schema; and that this schema frames, threads and manages other modes of thinking during design. The philosophical roots, cognitive structure and operational requirements of intentional thinking are indicated and a computational model of design thinking which would enable Intentionality in design to become more accessible as a subject of research is referenced.

An Indian Who Doesn’T Know How To Grow The Maize, S. Boess, D. Durling, C. Lebbon, C. Maggs

DRS Biennial Conference Series

In user-centred design, a common ground that emerges is an orientation towards research into the needs and wishes of consumers. Hermeneutic phenomenology can be adopted by a designer to investigate her/his own activity and use of knowledge in designing. A reflection of this kind is presented here. It is based on design and research activities in the domain of product design, in which the realization of user-centred design was sought by means of preliminary user research, application of its results in design work, and evaluation of the outcomes through renewed user research. The outcome of the reflection is the formulation …

Integrating The World’S Most Effective Creative Design Strategies, D. Mann

DRS Biennial Conference Series

The paper examines the broad range of methods, tools and strategies available to designers and attempts to distill the best of each in a bid to generate a coherent, ‘systematic creative design’ philosophy. Although using the Soviet-originated Theory of Inventive problem Solving, TRIZ as its foundation, the proposed design method also encompasses elements of, amongst others, QFD, Design for X, Value Engineering, Axiomatic Design and Robust Design. The paper describes the ongoing process of integrating these methods and reviews their deployment on a broad spectrum of real engineering design case studies.

Telling Tales: Understanding The Role Of Narrative In The Design Of Taxonomic Software, S. Turner, P. Turner, C. Raguenaud, J. Kennedy

DRS Biennial Conference Series

This paper draws on concepts from the structuralist analysis of narrative to explore aspects of the role of stories in the small group design process. A brief review of relevant narratological concepts is provided. Their application in a preliminary analysis of case study data from a team designing taxonomic software is then reported. It is concluded that narratology, and in particular the notion of focalisation, has useful descriptive potential in this context, and may help to elucidate some difficulties in design communication and documentation. Suggestions for extension of the work are included.

Ajuri V. Idf Commander In West Bank, Aharon Barak, Shlomo Levin, Theodor Or, Eliahu Mazza, Mishael Cheshin, Tova Strasberg-Cohen, Dalia Dorner, Dorit Beinisch, Jacob Turkel

Translated Opinions

Facts: The IDF Commander in Judaea and Samaria made orders requiring three residents of Judaea and Samaria to live, for the next two years, in the Gaza Strip. The orders were approved by the Appeals Board. The three residents of Judaea and Samaria petitioned the High Court of Justice against the orders.

The petitioners argued that the orders were contrary to international law. In particular the petitioners argued that Judaea and Samaria should be regarded as a different belligerent occupation from the one in the Gaza Strip, and therefore the orders amounted to a deportation from one territory to another, …

Writing Mathematics-A Nut And A Bolt Of Style, Frank A. Farris

Mathematics and Computer Science

As editor of Mathematics Magazine, I see a lot of manuscripts. Some of them are written with a charming sense of style, but many of them leave me thinking that the author's only concern was to set out the mathematics clearly. This is a fine place to start, but the tradition of the Magazine is to offer things that people will enjoy reading, and this requires more than clarity. Let me explain an important step authors can take in order to make their work more attractive.

The Promethean, Volume 11, Number 01, Fall/Winter 2002, English Department, Concordia University-Portland

The Promethean

This issue of the Promethean marks several changes in the journal's look and mission. In keeping with the convention of many literary journals, we have moved to a half-page format and standardized our layout so that the focus is on the written words our contributors have shared. The decision to feature artwork only on the cover was difficult, and we hope that our planned website will provide students with an opportunity to share their talents on-line. We are also featuring, in this issue and in forthcoming fall/winter issues, the winners of our themed essay contest. This fall the contest asked …
