Interested in learning how to bridge interaction analysis and design?

We would like to draw your attention to an upcoming course on The Social Side of Robots and AI. Video Methods for Interaction Analysis and Design. The course provides hands-on training on how to use video data for analysis and design prototyping.


Learning Objectives:
Students will gain knowledge and practical experience in:
a)      Planning and conducting video ethnographic studies, including data collection, transcription, and video analysis.
b)      Preparation and facilitation of collaborative data sessions and co-creation workshops, using techniques for rapid prototyping, including enactments, role-play, and bodystorming/vocal sketching.
c)      Facilitating and navigating interdisciplinary collaborations by using techniques that can bridge both fields.

Target group
This course is suitable for PhD students of social science and humanities, design and robotics, HRI or HCI who are interested in:
a)      Using video/audio recordings for analysing meaning-making processes in social settings in which robots or AI agents are or should be embedded,
b)      exploring interactional and embodied methods for designing robots and AI agents for interactions in real world settings, and
c)      developing an embodied and interactional understanding of human practices and human-centred design processes.

We admit non-PhD students, including practitioners as space permits.
