Reading Reflection | Due 9/27 Hugh Beyer & Karen Holtzblatt. "Contextual Design." interactions 6, no. 1 (1999): 32-42. Reflection Question Prompt: How would you adapt the Contextual Design process and language in this article, which draws on workplace examples, for student-centered learning activities (e.g portfolio practices) in a classroom context? Focus your translation on the design directives in the Contextual Inquiry section and Work Model examples (flow, cultural and physical) for a learning context. Feel free to challenge or problematize assumptions built into the authors' Contextual Design approach that may unravel in a learning context. NB: For User Study 1 - each team will need to create a “work model” for student portfolio practices based on your user study data, so pay attention to the different ways work models are represented in this reading.
