Contextual EngineeringTranslating User Voice Into Design /[electronic resource] :by Ann-Perry Witmer. - 1st ed. 2022. - XIV, 97 p. 30 illus., 29 illus. in color.online resource. - Synthesis Lectures on Engineering, Science, and Technology,2690-0327. - Synthesis Lectures on Engineering, Science, and Technology,.

Preface. – What is Contextual Engineering? -- Perspectives, Motivations, and Objectives -- The Problem with Standards.-Why Context Matters,-Investigating Context -- Growing Contextual Engineering. .

This book shows readers a new way of thinking about the engineering design process, as well as how to expand their understanding of the role of technical designers in society, whether working with international communities or user populations from their own hometown. As readers build an understanding of Contextual Engineering, this book will challenge them to think about the applicability of the concept more broadly, not only in terms of technical design but in personal and professional interactions with others as well. At the same time, readers will learn techniques to explore their own predispositions and the biases they may not be aware they have, equipping them to interact with others more impartially. This self-reflection process also assists the designer in working with and accepting the uncertainty that is inherent in exploring context. Challenges the design engineer to consider the needs, capabilities, values, and beliefs of the intended technology users Explores quantitative analysis to assess social context and provides processes for applying context to technical design Examines the importance of designer perspective and offers processes to address biases, fairness, and inclusion.
