DtM Meets with IDEO Boston for CMES Field Study Design Review

DtM met with staff members at the IDEO Boston office for a 3-hour design review workshop, in preparation for the CMES field study in late June. Elizabeth Johansen, Bill Stewart, Kate Schreiber, Linus Park, and Mekayla Beaver of IDEO all contributed their valuable time and energy to what ended up being an extremely informative and productive meeting.

The goal of the workshop was to lay out a prototype for the needs assessment process with CMES for the wizards at IDEO to review and improve. IDEO provided DtM with loads of fantastic suggestions for how to make the field study process more productive and efficient, in terms of trip preparation, execution, and follow-up. DtM is looking forward to experimenting with IDEO's information-gathering methods, for both interviews and observations. Thanks to everyone at the IDEO Boston office for their time and sage advice.
