Co-Design with Kids
Are you looking for a new way to engage and include your students or the youth in your program?
Co-Design with Kids means collaborating with kids throughout the design process of a product intended to be used by kids. From requirements gathering to brainstorming to iterative evaluation, co-design gives kids more power and voice in the design process, and can often lead to surprising, innovative, and effective end-products.
Kids’ roles in tech design
Children can be involved in many ways in the design process, from limited roles as users and testers when a product is finished or close to finished, to more in-depth roles as informants and design partners starting earlier on in the design process. In co-design, children are working together with adults to elaborate on ideas together. While it is important to work with children in many ways during a design process, this toolkit is dedicated to offering guidance for successful co-design with children.
