Ítem How design is taught? A survey of approaches, models & methods(The Design Society, 2015-01-01) Maya, J.; Gómez, E.How to teach design? This is not the first time that this question is asked and there are probably as many answers as design academic programs in the world. Knowing how to design is not enough to teach someone to do it. There are numerous experiences in this matter profusely published on literature. However, this information is sparse and does not exist in a summarized and comparative way, and knowing how design is taught is crucial to build other design academic programs in the future and enrich the pedagogical practices of the existing ones. Every design program should be based in a conceptual framework in which there are mainly two multidisciplinary fields: design and education. This framework provides a structured and concrete way of improving learning activities in design. In this paper, we will focus on design education identifying, summarizing and comparing its pedagogical practices (PP's) published in this matter. The first objective is accomplished with a survey of approaches, models and methods of teaching design (PW's), made from 204 publications not only in product design but in architecture, arts and other disciplines. A comparative table shows the name of the PP's, its conceptual foundations, the use of technology, role of the teacher and disciplinary origin. The second objective identified the elements in design education context to be able to describe relationships between them in the form of a pedagogical model to build in a future project. © 2015, The Design Society.

There are numerous methods to define the form of a product that best conveys an UX. One of these methods is the Conjoint Trend Board method (CTA) that is easy to use and inexpensive. Nevertheless, in some of CTA's instructions the user can introduce biases. Therefore, this publication is part of a study that seeks to increase the robustness of the method, increasing the accuracy of their results. This research seeks to define the criteria for choosing an image as inspiring, when one applies the CTA. One experiment with 6 designers (novel and experienced) is proposed in order to identify what the inspiring and non-inspiring elements are. Finally, some criteria, for use when selecting images as inspiring within the CTA method, are proposed.Ítem A product design method proposal for babies' play and learning(Faculty of Mechanical Engineering and Naval Architecture, 2012-01-01) Monsalve, J.; Maya, J.Ítem Proposal to identify the essential elements to construct a user experience model with the product using the thematic analysis technique(Faculty of Mechanical Engineering and Naval Architecture, 2014-01-01) Ariza, N.; Maya, J.User experience has become very important to product design today as a way to add value and differentiate products. Many different UX models exist but most of them lack of empirical reserch through their construction, restraining a theoretical advance toÍtem Towards an empirical model of the UX: A factor analysis study(Universidad de los Andes, 2014-01-01) Ariza, N.; Maya, J.One of the key factors to bear in mind when it comes to developing innovative products is a satisfying and pleasurable user experience (UX). Although there are many models and definitions of UX, most of them have been proposed intuitively. From themes and elements previously identified as essential for an UX model, a study of exploratory factor analysis (EFA ) was performed. We found eight factors in Before-UX-stage, 7 in During-UX and 17 in After-UX stage. Similar UX aspects are expressed in different ways trough the different stages and factors. There are differences in terms of how a factor could weight and relate to others regarding the UX-stage. Moreover, while some factors are consistent with the literature, others are new. Most of the factors give us an idea about the articulation of variables and the way some factors relate to others.Ítem A user-centred assessment of a new bicycle sharing system in Medellin(Elsevier Ltd, 2017-01-01) Bejarano, M.; Ceballos, L.M.; Maya, J.A bicycle sharing system (BSS) offers multiple benefits to a city as well as numerous challenges for effective implementation, especially if the system is connected to other modes of transportation. User-centred assessments of BSSs have been recognised as a paramount factor in transportation research, although it has received relatively little attention. This ethnographic study implemented a user experiential approach for assessing EnCicla, which is a new BSS in the city of Medellin, Colombia. A deeper understanding of users was needed for identifying the perceived journey maps; including route stages, functional likes and dislikes, affective reactions, and motivations for using the system. Findings identified not only the functional but also the affective aspects of the user experience. The 40 participants were also classified into four user groups: Lover, Civic, Grateful, and Adapted. Managerial implications involved recommendations for improving the service design and the communication and promotion strategies of the system. Limitations have to do with the specific characteristics of the sample. © 2016 Elsevier LtdÍtem A user-centred assessment of a new bicycle sharing system in Medellin(Elsevier Ltd, 2017-01-01) Bejarano, M.; Ceballos, L.M.; Maya, J.; Universidad EAFIT.

A grounded theory approach on a webpage's comments(Universidad de los Andes, 2016-01-01) Cadavid, A.M.; Ruiz, S.; Maya, J.In automotive design, the misuse of some aesthetic variables such as proportion, symmetry or balances etc. during the aesthetic design process can produce a negative aesthetic response to the user such as, when people assess a car as ugly. However, there is not a systematic study about the elements which actually affect the aesthetics of a car and not even theories to aid the cars designers in this process. Thus, we applied a Grounded Theory methodology using as data source a Yahoo blog "10 ugliest cars of all time" to obtain a first approach about how people understand and perceive ugliness in a car. We found five hypotheses about how people make an aesthetic assessment of vehicles, which were faced with the aesthetic theories to confirm the results obtained.
