For this Design Notebook you should have a section in your assignment that focuses on Inclusivity, Accessibility or Values in technology, by discussing:
Accessibility or Inclusivity issues with the HCI system you are discussing
A discussion of the values represented in the system, who they are values for, and who they might not be values for . It can be helpful to discuss different stakeholders and the different values that they might have in using the system.
Design Notebook Rubric (Fall 2020)
Discuss how Accessibility, Inclusivity or certain Values are or are not represented in the HCI system you are describing.
Make sure that you clearly describe what about the interface/interaction makes the issues of accessibility, inclusivity, or values applicable. Submissions should be in PDF.
If you are getting stuck about how to write up your example, consider these questions:
Is this an example of good or bad HCI? Why?
Who is this system designed for? How does the design address (or not) their goals, capabilities, or
preferences?
Are there permanent, temporary, or situational impairments that might prevent people from using the
system? what are they?
What values are represented in the system? what values are not represented in the system?
What is the context of use of this design? How does that affect its success?
What constraints, challenges, or opportunities do you think the designer was facing? Is there a reason the design is the way it is?
What would you do to make the design better?
