The Planet Project
6 partners, led by Janet Finlay, Leeds met 15 months, starting Jan 2008, ~£200k Sponsored by JISC Emerge http://patternlanguagenetwork.org

The Problem
Experts know how to solve problems. They may not know how they solve problems. They may not know how to make others know
how to solve problems. They may not even know they had solved a
problem.

Design patterns
[describe] a problem which occurs over and over again in our environment, and then describes the core of the solution to that problem, in such a way that you can use this solution a million times over, without ever doing it the same way twice(Alexander et al., 1977)

ProblemKeep the rain out
ContextCold, wet, poor.
Method of solutionThatched roof

example: activity nodes
Design problemCommunity facilities scattered individually through the city do nothing for the life of the city.
Design solutionCreate nodes of activity throughout the community, spread about 300 yards apart.

Patterns are..
“Experts' common sense” if only common sense was common
“Researchers situated abstraction” “Elements of reusable design” “Semi-structured narratives of good practice”

Fine, but...
Where do they come from? How are they validated? How do we use them?

Design problemHow do you facilitate sustainable design-level discussion of transferable best-practice?
Transcend anecdotes, avoid fluffy abstractions. Leverage innate cognitive & social learning mechanisms.

Scenario: the pattern elicitation workshop
Instantiate the Participatory Pattern Elicitation pattern in the specific context of design-based educational research.
Assumptions: 10-20 participants, practitioners interested in a
common theme from varied perspectives. 2-4 facilitators ½ - full day on-site workshop Pre and post workshop engagement
Yishay Mor: The Planet way, July 2008 16
Before the workshop
Participants contribute case studies, using an on-line, form-based tool.
Facilitators work with participants to refine and retune their case studies.
Participants review peer’s case studies.

Anton and Charlie submit patterns

After the workshop
Participants clarify case studies and patterns based on workshop discussions.
Facilitators help participants refine patterns, and note links to other patterns.
Facilitators reflect on the process, drawing on participants’ feedback.
