What are human-centred research methods?Show answer
Human-centred research keeps the user at the centre of discovery. Common methods include interviews and conversations, surveys and questionnaires, observation of people using a product or space, empathy techniques such as mapping a user's experience, and analysis of existing solutions to see what already works. Photographing and documenting the context, the place a design will be seen or used, is also valuable primary evidence.
What are writing about research methods?Show answer
In the exam, name specific methods, classify them as primary or secondary, and justify why each suits the information you need. Always mention ethics where relevant, consent, privacy and crediting sources, because responsible practice is examinable.
