Alternative
Method for Design Activity Research
The Limits for Protocol Analysis
design
activity research towards cognitive modeling. The limitations in its use
are uncovered and discussed: PA (1) is impractical for covering the complete
design process, (2) it oversights the presence of cognitive processes
not dependent on language and inference, and (3) it has not been able
to apply its findings in design practice. Acknowledging these limitations,
an alternative method based on mapping all of the design outputs is defined
and proposed. This method, integrating the domains of research and practice,
generates effective knowledge production and transference.
