ABSTRACT
This poster considers the use of storyboards, in a classroom setting with children in the 8-12 age group. The storyboarding method allowed children to both generate and evaluate scenarios for a virtual world populated by synthetic characters for exploring bullying issues. This approach has assisted children in the process of visualising agent design and verbalising opinions. It has resulted in design implications that have emerged from enabling children to have a voice in the technology process.

SVSb: simple and visual storyboards: developing a visualisation method for depicting user scenarios
OZCHI '07: Proceedings of the 19th Australasian conference on Computer-Human Interaction: Entertaining User InterfacesPresenting scenarios, or user tasks, in the form of storyboards is a common technique in the field of HCI. A storyboarding approach, called SVSb ('simple and visual storyboards'), is proposed. The aim is to create storyboards that are simple and easy to ...
