• The e-Scape booklet has
been developed by
Goldsmith College,
University of London
• Making it possible to assess
the ability to
– generate ideas
– develop ideas
– and proove ideas
• The e-Scape booklet is used
in two phases
– During the project exam /
design task, by students
– During assessment, by the
assessors

7. e-scape
• How can augmenting a
paper-based design process
support collaborative
sketching?
• Computer / PDA based
sketching has some
limitations
• Studies of designers
collaborative work and use
of paper
• Design, develop and test
interactive collaboration
concepts – keeping a paper
based sketching practice

11. ANALYSIS
• Sketching is a central part of their
interaction
• The pen was not just used a writing device
but also a means to relate the sketch to the
model
• Several iterations of the design ideas

12. SUMMARY
• The technology supports cooperation
– Accessing and altering of idea
– Sharing the material
– Separating ideas and comments
• Crucial interaction characteristics to pay
