Abstract: Given an environment conducive to participatory
        design, how does one go about doing it? The authors
        describe one method called cooperative prototyping.
        These involve sessions where users experience the
        future use situation, and then participate with
        designers in modifying the prototypes when usage
        breakdowns required it. Their article is especially
        valuable as it provides a theoretical framework, a
        practical guide for managing cooperative prototyping
        sessions, and an example of how cooperative
        prototyping develops in a real situation.
