dc.description.abstract | Researchers working with young participants may use prototyping techniques as a tool
for design components of the research. This research focuses on idea generation from
prototyping design sessions with youths of various ages. We conducted research with
two groups of youths in two different contexts. One in an open in-field session involving
contextual inquiry and interviews, and the other in temporally bound, structured
prototype design sessions. We performed an in-depth comparative analysis of three
commonly used prototyping design techniques, Storyboarding, Paper Prototypes, and
Bags of Stuff, with one group of participants. We found no strong preference for one
technique over the other in the design sessions, but we did find that the physical
constraints of the design space affected what crafting materials were chosen and how
materials were used. Finally, we discuss how the highly structured sessions could be
used in tandem with the less structured, more opportunistic field work. | en_US |
