Dreamland: A Case Study for a Campus Participatory Design Process |
| September 2002, TM College started its participatory venture for redesigning the campus public spaces. The process not only has produced better environments but also changed the school bureaucratic system temporarily. This paper describes the practice process: what techniques have been adopted to motivate people, how participatory process disturbed the existing school bureaucratic system, and what opportunities and factors assisted reaching the goals. This paper evaluates the whole process then suggests strategies for TM’s next try on participatory design: authorize participants first, provide feedback, refer to existing cases, and link partnership as outside force against the existing power structure. |
