Over the last three decades we have seen a massive shift in both engineering and philosophy towards the very real impacts that technologies have not only on individual users, but also on the community, society, and the planet. Because of this, the question of design and how to design for human values has become a central focus in what we now call responsible innovation.
Still, despite engineers and designers agreeing on the need to design technologies for human values, rather than relegating to them as afterthoughts, they often fail to see salient ways forward regarding how to actually go about ethical design in their day-to-day work.
This online seminar explores one such approach and methods geared towards designing for human values, that being, value sensitive design (VSD). It will explore how VSD can be theoretically understood and practically applied in any design domain. It will likewise demonstrate one of the many VSD tools called Envisioning Cards for how designers can immediately begin to implement VSD in their practices.
