This document provides an overview of a summer school on open innovation and user experience design and assessment taking place from September 10-14, 2012 in Milan. The summer school will introduce concepts of user experience design and apply them to specific cases, including developing a smart conference networking app. Participants will learn about experience design methodologies, living labs, and the ELLIOT project for designing IoT experiences. The document outlines the agenda, presenters, and goals of improving design innovation through user-centered approaches.

1. Summer School
Open Innovation & User eXperience Design & Assessment
Day 1, 10th September 2012
Session: Introduction
Presenter: Roberto Santoro
Milan, 10th – 14th Sep. 2012

2. 1st Summer School on “Open Innovation and
User eXperience Design & Assessment”
Hands on UX Design Summer School - Milan, 10th –
14th September 2012
• To raise awareness on design innovation, based
on the Integration of Design methodologies within
Living Labs’ environments
• To apply UX design concepts to specific cases
including Smart Conference
• To develop a roadmap for the UX based design
framework

3. User Experience
The four elements of User Experience (Rubinoff, 2004) Facets of the User Experience (Morville, 2004)
User Experience (ISO 9241-210):
• “A person's perceptions and responses that result from the use or anticipated use of a product,
system or service"
• “is subjective and focuses on the use”
• “includes all the users' emotions, beliefs, preferences, perceptions, physical and psychological
responses, behaviours and accomplishments that occur before, during and after use”

4. Experience Design
Experience Design is the practice of designing products, processes, services,
events, and environments with a focus placed on the quality of the user
experience and culturally relevant solutions, with less emphasis placed on
increasing and improving functionality of the design (Aarts & Marzano, 2003).
Many disciplines are involved in Experience Design, such as cognitive and
perceptual psychology, cognitive science, architecture and environmental
design, interaction design (ergonomics & haptics), product design,
ethnography, service design, heuristics, technical communication and
design thinking.

8. “IDeALL: Integrating Design for All in
Living Labs”
• “How to Improve User-Centered Innovation
with Design for all Methodologies and
Experimentations with Users in Living Labs?
Example of IDeALL Project.”
http://www.ami-communities.eu/wiki/IDeALL
• The goal of the IDeALL project is to connect
designers and innovative eco-systems in order
to create a common platform. Furthermore, its
purpose is to link two innovative and user-
centered communities: Living labs and the
Design for All community.
• This project banks on the fact that the
connection of Living Labs and Design for All
communities will favour innovation through joint
approach toward non-technological innovation,
putting the human being at the heart of the
concerns.

IDeALL - Integrating Design for All in Living Labs
The workshop main objective is to identify and share methodologies based on user-centred
approaches. used in « design sentres » and in « Living Labs » The identified methodologies
will then be compared in interactive sessions
– am: Identifying User-centred methods in the Design and LLAB Community
– pm: Comparing methods and approaches
Design Methods
• Lead User
• Contextual Design
• Empathic Design
• LUPI® Design
• Usability Design
• Experiential Design
• User Centred Design
• Participatory Design
9
• Web 2.0 Design

10. The final list of 16 criteria for
Design Methods assessment
• Cost Effectiveness (includes Cost Process and Cost)
• Decision Power (who has the power of deciding? Legitimacy? Designers?
Users? Policymakers? Degree of hierarchy?
• Empirical Evidence (the degree to which a method was previously successful: it means that
empirical studies of this method are available)
• Expertise (type and level of expertise needed)
• Impact Measurement (the degree to which the method has an impact on the design
successfulness)
• Immersive Experience (the degree of interaction within the innovative scenario)
• Product Evaluation (users and companies perspectives)
• Nature of Deliverables (e.g. prototypes, products, services, scenarios)
• Observations (needs & expectations, capacities, users behaviours & feelings)
• Physical Support (the material used to play the innovative scenario)
• Privacy Issues (e.g. digital identity, confidential information, anonymous characteristics)
• Public/Private (the degree to which the method is compatible with either PP partnership or just
Public dev. or just Private dev.)
• Time (Project planning)
• User Feedback (e.g. surveys, Focus Group Interview)
• User Contribution (the degree of involvement as observed subject or as co-creating value)
• User Involvement (individual user, group of users)
• Visual (the degree of concretisation of the concepts)

11. Designing IoT Experiences
the ELLIOT (Experiential Living Lab
for the Internet of Things) project
(www.elliot-project.eu), which aims to
develop an Internet Of Things (IOT)
experiential platform where users/
citizens are directly involved in co-
creating, exploring and
experimenting new ideas, concepts
and technological artefacts related to
IOT applications and services.
ELLIOT will allow studying the
potential impact of IOT and the
Future Internet in the context of the
Open User Centred Innovation
paradigm and of the Living Lab
approach
.
