Description:

The Reflective Drawing Technique is based on an activity in which children are asked to draw themselves during the interactive experience. Subsequently, the researchers interview them about their user experience and the different elements represented in the drawings. The aim of the activity is to elicit children's feedback on the educational experience and on using the prototype.

Benefits:

  • Easy to produce by children at all ages and overcome children’s verbal difficulties to express their opinion and describe certain situations
  • Helps to mentally recall the experience and highlight different aspects from children's perspective
  • Complements the evaluation of drawings with individual interviews and reveales children’s opinions and sensations during the user experience
