Structuring+Phase+2

=Structuring Phase= For this phase of the Public Spaces Project, you will be working in a small team (2-3 people) to establish and organize your concepts into plausible design strategies. In the Understanding Phase, we generated multiple topics in regards to public space. In this phase we need to make sense out of these topics by following a series of steps to conceptualize and present our ideas for new interactive systems designed to support the activities of people in our public spaces. We will do this by focusing on our 'sphere of activity' followed by a visual representation of these findings in the form of an explanatory graphic.

Things to Do

 * 1) Read [|Ch.2] from “Designing Interactive Systems” (Benyon, Turner and Turner, 2005) and [|Design Research and Brainstorming] (Saffer, 2006)
 * 2) Brainstorm and develop at suitable PACT and post notes to wiki
 * 3) Plan, develop and execute a User Study - post notes to wiki
 * 4) From user study, highlight  requirements needed for system - post notes to wiki
 * 5) Develop a graphic representation of PACT, User Study and Requirements;
 * 6) Read [|Infographics: Being and Doing] for some frameworks and strategies.

Deliverables
Note: the explanatory graphics can integrated into a single work.
 * 1) PACT Analysis - textual notes and explanatory graphic
 * 2) User Study - plan, results and analysis - textual notes and explanatory graphic
 * 3) Requirements - textual notes and explanatory graphic

Submission
Submit your work to the wiki and to David's dropbox by the beginning of class on **Thursday Nov. 4** for review with a final submission on **Monday Nov. 9**
