Week 2 - Community Service Engineering - User Centred Design is a basic topic for the course. User Centred Design involves the end user while designing. All assignments in CSE have the User Centred Design cycle as a basis. Methods for human centred design (Maguire) were explained. We visited LiCalab, the Living & Care lab that has a real-life test invironment. We learned about of potential technology for the sector at Mobilab. Participatory Design is one step beyond 'User Centred Design'. 'Participatory Design' is the design philophy that puts the end user in an equal position as the designer. And of course we also touched the topic of Universal Design (Design for all).
