Klappentext zu „Contextual Engineering “
This book shows readers a new way of thinking about the engineering design process, as well as how to expand their understanding of the role of technical designers in society, whether working with international communities or user populations from their own hometown. As readers build an understanding of Contextual Engineering, this book will challenge them to think about the applicability of the concept more broadly, not only in terms of technical design but in personal and professional interactions with others as well. At the same time, readers will learn techniques to explore their own predispositions and the biases they may not be aware they have, equipping them to interact with others more impartially. This self-reflection process also assists the designer in working with and accepting the uncertainty that is inherent in exploring context.Inhaltsverzeichnis zu „Contextual Engineering “

Dr. Ann-Perry Witmer is a senior research scientist in the University of Illinois Applied Research Institute as well as a lecturer in the College of Engineering and College of ACES. She is the originator of the emerging discipline of Contextual Engineering, which uses the social sciences to more effectively apply technical solutions, particularly for societies outside the industrialized world. Her research and service work have brought her into close association with communities on five continents, investigating and applying engineering solutions to assist communities in obtaining safe drinking water supplies. In addition to her civil and agricultural engineering degrees from the University of Illinois, Dr. Witmer also holds degrees in journalism and art history from Boston University.
