Behold the magical kingdom of Participatory Design

This is it! 

My final semester as a master student at the University of Oslo. A lot of work has lead up to these final months of  analyzing, writing up, and checking for spelling mistakes. I have decided that it is time for me to share to the (participatory design) world what I have been keeping myself busy with.

The topic for my thesis something as simple as: 

- the involvement of users in a design process through social media -

Sounds simple right (and perhaps a tad geeky)?

Wrong (and right)! 

In studying how a conventional Participatory Design method can be applied in Social Media I have learned to collect data and document the processes.. gained knowledge about peoples participation and the effects of moving a design setting from the physical work place to a digital setting. As I will describe in this blog I encountered numerous challenges that lead to interesting (and exciting) findings.

I hereby declare the "It's PD stuff" blog for open!

Stay tuned!
