A. Complete instruments and process to user test your future persona scenarios in your neighborhoods. Build your own research instruments and process drawing upon the ideas, methods, tools and frameworks in the SPEED DATING  and SPEED RESEARCHING reference materials. Also,

Also, this SUSTAINABLE DESIGN TOOLKIT is full of lots of ideas, frameworks, templates and tools useful for XDF teams at this phase of your projects.

Think back about what you did on your first Neighborhood Expedition Trek. What did you learn about what was most effective? Least effective?

Also refer to material from Day 13; i.e.:

– We conduct EXPEDITIONARY TREKS to observe and interview real people today in their accustomed situations. Here our purpose is not to gather projectable statistical data. Rather it is to uncover what interests, influences and motivates peoples’ attitudes, behavior and lifestyle today and how they express their concerns, dilemmas and hopes for the future. These serve as data points of reference for attributes and salient  patterns that might inform future persona profiles and scenario narratives of opportunities of LIFE2050 for our FUTURE PERSONA cast of characters.

– Review  CI_Personas_toolkit#2  Pp. 8 – 12 show templates for an EXPEDITION TREK to observe and interview subjects in the field

B. Conduct Speed Research. Prepare results for presentation on Day 23
