  9. Understanding whiteboard design

  10. Understanding whiteboard design

  11. Interleaving design behaviors • Draw different kinds of diagrams • Draw what they need, and no more • w.r.t. design at hand • w.r.t. notational conventions • Refine and evolve sketches • increasing notational convention • appropriate sketches • Use impromptu notations • Move from one perspective to another • Move from one alternative to another • Move from one level of abstraction to another • Perform mental simulations • Juxtapose sketches • Review progress • Retreat to previous ideas • Switch between synchronous and asynchronous work • Explain their sketches to one another • Bring their work together

  12. Rotating subject pairs
