Sampling young children's experiences with cultural probes

Published: 11 June 2008 Publication History

Abstract

This paper discusses our experience with combining Cultural Probes and Experience Sampling as a design research method for inquiries involving young children. While we report on just a single case, we believe this to be a valuable experience showing some of the problems that have to be addressed in surveying emotions and experiences over time, some of the solutions we proposed but also the potential of the method.
