Abstract

Since introducing “slow technology” and “reflective informatics” in human-computer interaction (HCI) research, developing prototypes for eudaimonic activities (such as learning and critical thinking) has gained attention. With ’eudaily’, students are encouraged to reflect on philosophical ideas playfully. Using the framework of reflective play, a database of 22,216 perspectives across 1,507 philosophical ideas, and a measure for reflective activities in interaction with technology, this prototype was designed and evaluated by 21 students in an initial use case. Five practical implications to support reflection in HCI can be derived: (1) creating positive disruption is a design template for disruptions and (2) diversity of perspectives can serve as a design blueprint for positive disruption. Furthermore, (3) the importance of enabling the customization of the reflective process and (4) creating a balance between instruction and exploration have been identified. Finally, (5) users demand a variety of self-expression mechanisms during the interaction.
