“…This is reinforced in this study by M2 consistently taking the lead and organising the group, see Excerpt 9 below. This gender difference when it comes to leadership was also found in previous research when groups were separated by gender, each of the male groups established a self-elected leader, and only one of the two female groups chose a leader based on ability [33].…”

This study investigates aspects of the role gender plays in participatory design innovation workshops; reflecting on both the process and the output. Often when gender and design are discussed, the problems raised concern a lack of women as designers or developers [1], but there is little on ensuring full gender representation when it comes to users. In this study, a design workshop was run where participants were asked initially to identify or generate problems and possible digital solutions concerning their academic studies, and then to design their top self-selected solution. The workshop was recorded and transcribed, and a thematic conversation analysis was carried out which found gender to influence problem raising, language used and group practices. The paper concludes both that gender apparently plays a strong role in group dynamics with regards to design innovation; and that thematic conversation analysis provides an appropriate and insightful approach to understanding these issues.
