ADAPT: audience design of ambient persuasive technology

ABSTRACT

We discuss our experiences with applying participatory design methods to the development of a persuasive ambient display. By combining these two approaches, we hoped to engage community members in reducing environmental waste on our college campus. We describe our design process and rationale, the resulting design, lessons learned, and future research directions.
