“…Writers point to the need for further research into end-user engagement in graphic design (Forlizzi & Lebbon, 2002;Frascara, 2004;Nini, 2005). The few documented cases of co-design in graphic design stress the benefits of including end-users in the designed outcomes and the changing role of the designer (Barnes, Taffe, & Miceli, 2009;Nini, 2005;Strickler & Neafsey, 2002;). There is little graphic design literature discussing the influence of co-design on end-user participants and the trajectory of design choices.…”

Preventing Drug Interactions in Active Older Adults is an educational intervention to prevent prescription and over-the-counter (OTC) drug and alcohol interactions in active, community-living older adults. The objectives of the program are to increase older adults' knowledge of potential interactions of prescription medications with OTC drugs and alcohol and to increase their confidence (self-efficacy) about how to avoid such interactions. An interactive multimedia computer software program (Personal Education Program or PEP) was designed for the learning styles and psychomotor skills of older adults. Focus groups of older adults evaluated PEP components in a formative manner during development. The program content dealing with antacids, calcium supplements, and acid reducers was pilot tested with 60 older adults recruited from local senior centers. Participants used the PEP on notebook computers equipped with infrared-sensitive touchscreens. Users of PEP had greater knowledge and self-efficacy scores than controls. Participants indicated a high degree of satisfaction with the PEP and reported their intent to make specific changes in self-medication behaviors.
