Helping Remote Workers Maintain Good Posture and Reduce Sitting Discomfort

Lab:

What is the physical impact of working in non-office settings, and how can users be more sensitized to their postural comfort while in these environments?

Left, Right, and Gender: Exploring Interaction Traces to Mitigate Human Biases

Lab:

Visual Analytics Lab

We conduct 3 in-lab and one crowd-sourced experiment in the domains of politics and movies. We find mixed results that interaction traces (visual scents of historical interactions) can increase awareness of bias and impact interactive behavior and decision making.

design[ED] Lab

Lab:

Culture And Technology Lab (CAT)

Students solved these problems in design[ED] Lab (Design Education Lab), a user experience workshop that introduced teenagers and pre-professional adults to design-thinking, to encourage problem solving and critical thinking skill development. This workshop was in partnership with The Bridge Academy (College Park, GA), a full-time High School Diploma and GED Prep program offering a nontraditional path for students.
