Thursday during the game class, we had the visit of Dr Liza Potts that is specialized in parcipatory culture. She is working on the use of social software during times of disaster. She had us do an exercise that I think should be call visualizing the usability because not only it can help see the target audience but can allow one to see the relationship between the participants and the dynamics between a core concept and the participants. It appears to be a simple exercise but it can be difficult if the scope of one's project is big or there are many targeted audiences. If you want to learn more about her work you can check this site out: http://odu.academia.edu/LizaPotts or click on the title of my post
I hope that those of you that were in the class or that attended her presentation at the REVE give some feedback about her.
ReplyDeleteI like that her work addresses serious issues that need attention.
If there are issues that we don't agree with, I think instead of rejection you need to exercise tolerance, and perhaps share your concerns with the one you disagree with, but making sure you are open to the other side reasons.
A great Mexican leader of yore said that The respect for the rights of others begets peace...I think so as well.
