Conducted Participatory Design Session 2

We held our second Participatory Design session on Thursday, November 29. It went as well as the first session! The participants had fun testing the Coffee Sleuth prototype and the Google Mobile and Tell Me services. They gave us some valuable suggestions that we can incorporate into our prototype.

Leading up to the session, the group collaborated a great deal via Gmail and in person to plan it. Edith was the primary facilitator while Lisa assisted. Our activities leading up to the session included:

• Group planning
• Lisa designed the prototype.
• Lisa and Edith met to further plan the facilitation of the session just prior to it.
  

Each of us took notes.

Next steps:

• Prototype design revision -- Lisa
• Re-design task analysis -- Edith
• Summarize the second session -- Karen
  
• Design a new logo and graphics for the presentation -- Karen
• Propose presentation ideas and design the presentation -- Group

Since the session, Karen has summarized the notes and designed a new logo based on an inspiration from the session. Edith has been working on the task analysis. Lisa has been working on the prototype redesign. In addition, we have shared our research papers with each other.
