Parklets promote a low-cost, easily implementable approach to public space improvement through projects that energize and reinvent the public realm. They help address the desire and need for increased public open space and wider sidewalks.San Francisco Pavement to Parks Website

Usability is a quality attribute that assesses how easy user interfaces are to use. The word "usability" also refers to methods for improving ease-of-use during the
design process. !
Jakob Nielsen, 2003.
Usability is defined by 5 quality components: !
Learnability: How easy is it for users to accomplish basic tasks the first time they encounter the design? Efficiency: Once users have learned the design, how quickly can they perform tasks? Memorability: When users return to the design after a period of not using it, how easily can they reestablish proficiency? Errors: How many errors do users make, how severe are these errors, and how easily can they recover from the errors? Satisfaction: How pleasant is it to use the design?
A key one is utility, which refers to the design's
functionality: Does it do what users need?

What are we going to do?
We will have fun with HCD process. We will
try to DESIGN Melbourne CBD
GROUND based on pedestrians experience!
phase 1 [without process]

Task 1 – Mapping the campus: Each pair of students should explore and design routes in The University of Melbourne based on provided start and end points and based on their own experiences and needs.

Task 2 – Designing Melbourne CBD GROUND: Each group of students (teams of four) should DEFINE and DESIGN Melbourne CBD GROUND based on pedestrians movement/experience/walkability/…

RESEARCH Phase
Research comprises "creative work undertaken on a systematic basis in order to increase the stock of knowledge, including knowledge of man, culture and society, and the use of this stock of knowledge to devise new applications."(Wikipedia)
• Quantitative research • Designed to generate accurate and reliable measures that
allow statistical analysis • Appropriate to measure both opinions, attitudes, behaviors
and preferences • Ex: elections: quantify the preference of the electorate
• Qualitative research • Has no statistical basis • Analyzes profoundly non-measurable data - feelings,
sensations, perceptions, thoughts, intentions, past behavior, understanding reasons, meanings and motivations - from a certain group of individuals in relation to a specific problem.
• Involves the development and refinement of new ideas. • Extract reasoning, new discoveries, ideas and interpretations
Qualitative vs Quantitative
Qualitative vs Quantitative
!!
Example: Election Theory: Based on the history of elections in Melbourne Hypothesis: If Elena's President popularity in Melbourne is large, then the chance of the mayor’s with the same political side be elected is great Public Target: the voting population in various parts of the city Data collection: objective questions "Which candidate Mr/Miss vote for?" !Fragmentation of complex relationships in different variables allow the researcher to isolate and test other effects. And if leaving Elena’s politics side, who wins? Interpretation of the data
Quantitative research
!!
Are generally open Originate in the context of the researcher
Style and interest also influence Can describe states or processes
Assumptions can be confirmed or discovered
Qualitative research - Questions
Qualitative vs Quantitative

Formulation of Findings
Research Process
Focusing on what we want to know !
Simple, clear and concise sentences (enable proper interpretation)
Neutral issues (not induce a response) Positive affirmations (avoid reverse logic) Maintain focus (on compound questions)

Task 2 – Designing Melbourne CBD GROUND: Each group of students (teams of four) should DEFINE and DESIGN Melbourne CBD GROUND based on pedestrians movement/experience/walkability/… !1. Map your route between provided Start and End point 1.1 Try to identify, while mapping, people/lanes/ streets/ indoor and outdoor spaces/grounds/ shortcuts on your path 2. Apply your research methods with citizens on your path 2.1 Apply in different location, with different people. Try to identify the way people use Melbourne CBD Ground. 3. OUTPUT: Present your mapped route together with your research analysis (interviewees profile, places, codes and categories from your research data). Prepare your data to be presented next class in 10 minutes. This will be used as INPUT for IDEATION phase.
