Title
Development of a design task to assess students' understanding of human-centered design
Abstract
In this paper, we describe our process for creating a design task to assess students' understanding of human-centered design. The development process involved conducting a series of pilot tests, with analyses of the data from each prior pilot motivating revisions made to the next versions of the assessment design task. This paper is a formative look at the seven iterations of the design task that have been administered. We will discuss the information we gained about the students' understanding and the design task itself and how it informed the revisions. We will also discuss student perceptions of the design task, features of the design task that helped or hindered eliciting, and capturing, the participants' design process and major breakthroughs in the task development process.
