Start to conduct user testing
I conducted the first user testing with one mother and her lovely daughter on 21 November 2007 in her apartment where is located in upper west side of Manhattan.
They made the Moonlit Flower and it took almost 3 hours to make it. That's 3 times longer than I expected. However, it was very enjoy to make together.
On Sunday, November 25th, 2007, I will conduct the second user testing with 5 moms and their children at New York University. If you want to join the user testing or workshop, please give me a email sun.techdiy@gmail.com with your name and children's age.
TechTrack Interview!
E14: TechDIY for Mother and Daughter
TechDIY helps mothers teach their daughthers about electronics. Ji Sun Lee made Tech DIY as her theis project at ITP. Her young daughter is back in Korea with her husband while she is finishing up her studies in NYC. Her daughter and her experience in New York at ITP inspired her to make a set of Do It Yourself (DIY) projects that mothers can do with their daugthers to teach them about electronics in fun and positive ways.
As Ji Sun told TechTrek "like many other women, I was not initially interested in learning about electronics. However, I knew the enjoyment of making things. So I developed the Tech DIY to encourage women to learn about technology with their daughters in ways that are simple and fun, but have solid engineering lessons behind them."
