“…These experimental practices rely on open-ended processes of design and on value-based strategies of engagement which will allow meaning-and decision-making to emerge in often contentious private and public contexts (Iversen, Halskov, and Leong 2012;Andersen et al 2015). Such in situ explorations of sustainable change between diverse stakeholders are constantly evolving.…”

“…For example, Iversen et al (2012) pointed out that values are not static entities that are waiting for researchers and developers to collect them, but more like changing, complex and abstract ways of being and thinking. Keeney seems to take it for granted that decision makers are automatically people who are able to express what is important to them.…”

Abstract:A classroom with a blackboard and some rows of desks is obsolete in special education. Depending on the needs, some students may need more tactile and inspiring surroundings with various pedagogical accessories while others benefit from a simplified environment without unnecessary stimuli. This understanding is applied to a new Finnish special education school building with open and adaptable learning spaces. We have joined the initiative creation process by developing software support for these new spaces in the form of a learning space management system. Participatory design and value-focused thinking were implemented to elicit the actual values of all the stakeholders involved and transform them into software implementation objectives. This paper reports interesting insights about the elicitation process of the objectives.

“…Studies reveal that this participatory trend is partially rooted in the Nordic tradition of workplace democracy and employee involvement during the 1970s (Aagaard Nielsen and Svensson, 2006;Ehn, 1988;Gunnarsson et al, 2015;Hillgren, 2013;Sanders and Stappers, 2008;Sejer Iversen, 2012). Various terms have since been adopted to pinpoint such approaches, e.g.…”

Design teams – a participatory path to socially transformative innovation?

This study investigates how a design team with researchers and participants from different parts and levels of an organisation may function as a participatory method for socially transformative innovation. The experiences gained by a design team in one of Sweden's major forestry companies are examined through a participatory, single case study approach, in which researchers and employees jointly developed new insights and ideas. The results reveal that the design team functioned well in terms of channelling the participants' expertise and experiences into innovative ideas, but less well as regards aligning the latter with the company's regular management procedures, thus reducing the function of the design team to an abstract symbol of organisational 'modernity', rather than an effective instrument for social transformation.
