Values in Design

Values in Design

Values play an integral role in human-centered computing: they inform the kinds of trade-offs the make when considering different solutions; they create a basis for assessing how a particular artifact or system may fit into how people live, work, and play; and they are an important part of negotiating a common understanding in collaborative design settings. Work in this project area focuses on the various ways values become expressed through the design of interactive computing systems.
