Interactions Between Cognition and Action of Sticky Notes: – A Structural Analysis of the Collaborative Design Ideation Process; [스티키 노트의 인지와 행위의 상호작용성 - 협업적 디자인 발상 과정의 구조적 분석]

초록

Background Since the introduction as a supplementary tool in the design thinking process, sticky notes have been widely used across various design practices. Drawing from multiple studies that explore the cognitive functions of sticky notes, this study seeks to reconceptualize sticky notes as ‘interaction between cognition and action with performativity.’ This study also examines the moving and merging of sticky notes in the design process in collaborative design through design task experiments. Methods This study involved the design and execution of a design thinking experiment aimed at observing both individual and collaborative idea generation processes using sticky notes. The experiment’ s outcomes were analyzed through video and voice recording, supplemented by a reflective practice analysis and a complementary sticky note-behavior analysis, to provide a comprehensive understanding of the idea generation process within the experiment. Results The experiment revealed that each participant group developed a distinct structure for idea generation, as reflected in the arrangement and organization of sticky notes. By comparing the analytical results across groups, several key insights were derived, including the significance of reflective processes in idea generation, the role of framing in establishing a shared context within groups, and the impact of rearrangement and restructuring on the formation of idea generation structures. Conclusions This study examines the cognition-action structure of sticky notes by analyzing the process of idea generation in collaborative settings. The study highlights the importance of balancing content-oriented and structural thinking, as well as the role of structural deconstruction and reorganization in effective idea generation. The findings underscore that idea generation is not merely a product of isolated cognitive processes but is profoundly influenced by the surrounding materials, environment, and context.
