Abstract

The User-centered design (UCD) game is a tool for human-computer interaction practitioners to demonstrate the key user-centered design methods and how they interrelate in the design process in an interactive and participatory manner. The target audiences are departments and institutions unfamiliar with UCD but whose work is related to the definition, creation, and update of a product or service.
