Method-Resonance Heuristics Ethics Tool
“Method Heuristics'' is an evaluation-based activity where practitioners will be provided with designed method heuristics tags to evaluate existing ethics-focused methods designed for design work.
According to the A.E.I.O.yoU model (part of the bigger toolkit), this activity seeks to evaluate ethics-focused supports at an artefact (A) level.
STEPS
Familiarize yourself with the Method Heuristics provided to evaluate a method.
Select/ Identify an ethics focused method that you want to evaluate or currently using in your team. Here is a list of ethics focused methods.
Evaluate the method using this worksheet by:
Placing Intention Cards and matching them to the Design Phase (cards) the method can be used in.
Bookmarking on the method with Ecology Heuristic Tags and Artefact Heuristic Tags.
Reflect, tweak, and edit to identify how the method can be tweaked to be used in your ecological setup for ethical decision making.
