ID Graduate Seminars Series #1:
Our PhD graduate, Dr. Armağan Kuru, will give a seminar entitled “Exploration of User Experience of Personal Informatics Systems” as a part of our ID Graduate Seminars Series. The seminar will take place in Kubbealtı, Faculty of Architecture, METU, on March 12th, Wednesday, at 12:40. The seminar is open to all. “Many people use personal informatics systems to gather personal behavioral data, make better decisions, and make changes to their behavior. While the proliferation of new products on the market makes collecting personal data easier, how to help people engage with these systems over a long period of time remains an open question. To uncover which features of personal informatics systems lead to engaging experience and long-term use, two user studies were conducted with people who use personal informatics systems to support or track behavior change. In this presentation, an example of uncovering people`s experience through research will be explained.”
