Field research and interaction design: course #3nicolas nova
Third deck of slides from the Field Research and Interaction Design, a Master course at the Geneva University of Art and Design, in the Media Design program taught in 2009-2010
Our design research guide on how to "design the right thing before designing the thing right. For everyone who are beginners to UX or just need a reminder. We cover design values, interviewing techniques, and empathy.
The document analyzes science fiction films and television shows through three eras - modern utopia, science noir, and digital intangible. It discusses the themes, design idioms, and visions of the future portrayed within each era. Key works highlighted include 2001: A Space Odyssey, Blade Runner, Minority Report, and how they shaped expectations and critiques around technology, urban environments, and the integration of digital interfaces. The document also examines how science fiction can be used as an innovation toolkit to explore scenarios and inspire new design approaches.

SRISTI 2K17 presents Tech Quiz. There are 5 rounds with direct questions worth +10 points and bonuses worth +5 points. Full pounces are worth +20 or -15 points. Teams can pounce on a question not directed at them for a chance to answer first and gain/lose points. The quizmaster's decision is final.
The document outlines the rules for a game show called Séance 2k19, including details on direct rounds, written rounds, and a connection round. It then provides 12 questions for a direct round on various science and trivia topics, asking players to provide direct answers or connections between items in a "safety slide" format. Scores are awarded based on correct direct answers or connections.
This document contains a list of topics in different categories including technology, current events, science, and entertainment. Some of the topics mentioned include Google Glass, the Xbox Live gaming network, the controversial Kopimism religion, and Edward Snowden's leaks about the NSA's PRISM surveillance program. Other topics listed are 3D printed guns, the Harry Potter universe appearing in Google Maps, and Khan Academy founder Salman Khan. The document provides a high-level overview of various topics across different subject areas from recent years.
This document discusses a property listed on Airbnb that gained attention online. The property was titled "lakeside cabin in the woods, 20 minutes from Atlanta International Airport" and located in Fairburn, Georgia. Its availability as a rentable property on Airbnb made it a popular listing and boosted its booking value. The document also provides rules and questions for an online quiz competition.
New Broken Time-reversal Symmetry Superconductors: Theoretical Constraints on...Jorge Quintanilla
The document discusses unconventional superconductors that break time-reversal symmetry, including LaNiC2. It provides an analysis of the possible pairing states and mechanisms in LaNiC2 based on its crystal structure and symmetry. Non-unitary pairing states are identified as possible candidates that break time-reversal symmetry while preserving other symmetries.
The Srishthi Sci-Tech Quiz consisted of 3 rounds testing the participants' knowledge of science and technology. The first round had 24 multiple choice questions covering a range of concepts. The second round involved identifying the ideas behind 6 xkcd comics strips. The final round required listing the 15 chemical elements that were named to honour scientists, with the participant correctly naming all 15.
- The document describes a 20 question sci-tech quiz on evolution with multiple choice answers.
- The questions cover topics ranging from animal behavior, climate change, astronomy, technology, history and more.
- The format is a Google form with questions, answer options and explanations shared over discord and zoom for participants to complete.
1) The document discusses a quiz competition containing 18 questions about various topics related to architecture, engineering, geography and history.
2) The questions cover topics like famous structures, civilizations, national parks, rivers and their lengths, stadiums, monuments and more.

Bruce Damer on EvoGrid @ SMARTLab-Oct 2008Bruce Damer
The document discusses Project EvoGrid, which aims to simulate the spontaneous emergence of artificial life from non-life through an evolutionary process. The goal is to shed light on how life may have originated from non-life on Earth. It outlines plans to create a movie and 3D simulations to demonstrate a thought experiment of this process. It also discusses potential consequences of successfully simulating the origin of life, such as how it may affect views of God and humanity's role in the universe.

This document summarizes research on how learning occurs through designing mobile media games using the ARIS platform. It describes 4 university courses from 2013-2014 where students used ARIS to design mobile games. Data was collected from student surveys, observations, final ARIS projects and reports. Key findings included: students progressed through idea formation, vision scoping and goal achievement phases with transformation, understanding, disappointment and mistakes along the way; confidence in design skills improved slightly over iterations; and students felt they learned the most through the process despite difficulties. The document advocates for an iterative design process and providing a diversity of design tools to support learning.
The document describes a game called SISSYFIGHT 3000 that is meant to teach game design concepts. It outlines the setup of dividing players into colored groups, the goal of reducing other players' self-esteem points to zero to win, and how to take turns choosing secret actions and targets to reduce paperclip counts representing self-esteem. It then questions what makes something fun and a game, discussing psychology and the mechanics-dynamics-aesthetics framework to analyze the design of SISSYFIGHT 3000.

This document provides an introduction to game design vocabulary. It defines what a game is, including elements of toys, simulations, puzzles and stories. It then outlines key game design concepts like symmetrical vs. asymmetric design, character attributes, challenge levels, feedback types, meaningful choices, community design and fidelity. The vocabulary is intended to help critique and analyze games.
This document discusses situated learning, which involves contextualized, problem-based scenarios set in authentic places. It emphasizes using cases, stories, and real-world settings to create genuine learning experiences. Situated learning aims to make learning mobile and augmented by placing it within actual contexts through documentary-style field research.
What Teachers Can Learn From Rock Band, Facebook and Angry BirdsDavid Gagnon
Teachers can learn several lessons from popular games, social media, and apps. Games like Rock Band and Angry Birds engage users through compelling gameplay, feedback systems, and opportunities for social interaction. Social networks like Facebook allow users to develop mediated identities and contribute to knowledge through participation. Emerging technologies also provide new ways for authentic learning through real-time data, augmented reality, place-based activities, and mobile access to contextual and personalized "just in time" information.

A Visual Guide to 1 Samuel | A Tale of Two HeartsSteve Thomason
These slides walk through the story of 1 Samuel. Samuel is the last judge of Israel. The people reject God and want a king. Saul is anointed as the first king, but he is not a good king. David, the shepherd boy is anointed and Saul is envious of him. David shows honor while Saul continues to self destruct.
