Abstract

In the last decade, participatory design is having a major impact on the design of technology for learning. It is increasingly common to use participatory and co-design approaches to involve teachers and students in the design of technology to generate solutions focused on their needs. Participatory design aims to involve the final users during the whole process, which requires to develop strategies to work with and give voice to people with different knowledge, needs and roles. The aim of this article is to analyse the use of participatory design in educational technology. Firstly, we described the origin of this type of approach and the most common applications in the educational field. Secondly, we analyse the methods that facilitate communication and collaboration between designers and participants, as well as the key principles of participatory design. Finally, we discuss the implications of participatory design for research and innovation in educational technology.
