This event has passed

Co-designing can be described as a participatory prototyping process with co-designers engaged in making, telling and enacting future artifacts and experiences.

With the move to online communication during the pandemic, the tools and methods for co-designing have needed to change.

In this talk, Liz Sanders Ph.D. shares examples of this transformation and discusses which of these transformations are here to stay. The hosts for this event are Sofia Ryan Ph.D. and Kea Zhang.

This event aired on 10 February 2021
