Event Evaluation and Design: Human Experience Mapping

Design verstehen - Formative Evaluation der User Experience

In diesem Beitrag wird eine Methode zur formativen Evaluation des Nutzungserlebens (User Experience) vorgestellt: die Valenzmethode (Burmester et al. 2010 in Druck). Als theoretische Basis dient das User-Experience-Modell von Hassenzahl (2008, 2010). Nutzer geben während einer Explorationsphase kontinuierlich an, ob sie positive oder negative Gefühle erleben. Die Instanzen werden im Rahmen eine...

Design and Evaluation of Aquatic Ecosystems via Discrete Event Simulation

Environmental issues will continue to be of great importance in the XXI Century. For they affect health, drive production costs up (short and long term) and are felt across borders, making them a global problem. In addition, ecological problems are fairly complex, involving many physical, human and socioeconomic factors that often interact with each other. Therefore, building tractable mathemat...

Design and Evaluation of a Computerized Dynamic Mapping System Interface

Robotic Event Extension Experience

In this paper we present our experiences from extending the Eurobot contest for students of the age up to 30 by a category for pupils up to 18. We show two different models of the extension and present our experiences acquired after implementing them in 2008 and 2009.

Food as Experience A Design and Evaluation Methodology

This research, conducted for Frito Lay-North America, Inc, demonstrates how new product designs, package designs, concepts, and prototypes can be created based on the social, emotional, cognitive, and sensory information gathered through a combined methodology based on activity theory, Kansei Engineering and the ZMET process. The study examines how activity theory can be used to observe situati...
