To-Do
Create a response as a group to the following questions:- how and to which extent does the EDC support individual and/or social creativity?
- which features of the EDC (if any) did you find interesting / impressive?
- which features are missing from the EDC?
- how and to which extent does the EDC support individual and/or social creativity?
- which features of the EDC (if any) did you find interesting / impressive?
- The fact that the EDC includes communities of practice is extremely impressive. No effort to improve a situation would be especially effective without considering how things work now and building on those strengths and weaknesses. Often, we are so focused on the future when designing these situations, that we forget to take into account the mistakes of the past. Additionally, you get a viewpoint (or several!) that a normal designer would never have. Communities of practice are an especially effective way to design and collaborate on projects, and their inclusion into the EDC is one of its most impressive and effective attributes.
- which features are missing from the EDC?
- A feature that is inevitably touched on but not directly addressed is the standard perception of what typical users "know". What standard knowledge is necessary to be a user of a modifiable model? Is there a standard threshold? If so, what patience do users have to reach this point to truly benefit from available technologies? Can these projections be predicted or can such issues only be addressed as they come up?
