11. Program Matters : From Drawing to Code
Sammanfattning : Whether on paper, on site or mediating between both, means for reading and writing geometry have been central to architecture: the use of compasses and rulers, strings, pins, stakes or plumb-lines enabled the analysis and reproduction of congruent figures on different surfaces since antiquity, and from the renaissance onwards, the consistent planar representation of three-dimensional shapes by means of projective geometry. Tacitly through practice, or explicitly encoded in classical geometry, the operational syntaxes of drawing instruments, real or imaginary, have determined the geometric literacies regulating the production and instruction of architecture.

13. Föreställning och eftertanke : bilder och verbalt språk i tidiga skeden av designprocessen
Sammanfattning : This thesis investigates why verbal language is not sufficient to express the experience and desires of the users and how imagery can be combined with words in the early stages of the design task to make this process go smother. A communication tool has been elaborated from a set of experiments simulating the dialogue in the initial phase of the design process. LÄS MER
14. Adapting users : towards a theory of use quality
Sammanfattning : The power of periods of learning and the knowledge of training professionals are underestimated and unexplored. The challenges posed in this dissertation to usability and hci deal with the transformation from usability to use quality, and learning as a means to promote use quality. LÄS MER
15. Design and use of mobile technology in distance language education : Matching learning practices with technologies-in-practice
Sammanfattning : This thesis focuses on the adaptation of formal education to people’s technology- use patterns, theirtechnology-in-practice, where the ubiquitous use of mobile technologies is central. The research question is: How can language learning practices occuring in informal learning environments be effectively integrated with formal education through the use of mobile technology? The study investigates the technical, pedagogical, social and cultural challenges involved in a design science approach. LÄS MER
