    David Struzek arbeitet als wissenschaftlicher Mitarbeiter am Lehrstuhl für Wirtschaftsinformatik an der Universität Siegen im Bereich „IT für die alternde Gesellschaft“. Seit dem 1.6. koordiniert er das Forschungsprojekt Acitve City Innovations an der Universität Siegen, das sich unter anderem mit dem Thema „Freude und Bewegung im öffentlichen Raum“ beschäftigt. Zudem unterstützt im Projekt Digi.DoM (www.digitale-dorfmitte.de) das Team bei der Einführung und Erforschung von Alltagstechnologien mit Schwerpunkt auf ältere DorfbewohnerInnen.

    Der Schwerpunkt seiner Doktorarbeit behandelt das Thema „Smart Rural Areas“ aus der Perspektive der Sozialinformatik zur Förderung der gesellschaftlichen Teilhabe durch Technologie. David Struzek absolvierte seinen Master (M.Sc.) in Human Computer Interaction am gleichnamigen Lehrstuhl. Im Rahmen seiner Masterarbeit untersuchte er im BMBF-geförderten Forschungsprojekt „Cognitive Village“ die Entwicklung eines persuasiven Systems zur Bewegungssteigerung im Kontext der alternden Gesellschaft. Den Bachelor (B.Sc.) hat Herr Struzek an der TH Köln im Studiengang Medieninformatik erlangt. In seiner Bachelorarbeit beschäftigte sich in dem von der Universität Siegen durchgeführten Kooperationsprojekt „Hilfe, Rat & Tat für Mieterinnen und Mieter“ mit den Gestaltungsanforderungen mobiler Endgeräte für älterer Nutzerinnen und Nutzer.

    Weiteres Forschungsinteresse hat Herr Struzek im Bereich Human-Computer-Interaction, User Experience, Usability & Accessibility und Creative Science. Weitere Erfahrungen sammelte Herr Struzek durch seine Selbstständig im Bereich Webdesign/-programmierung und Art Licensing.

    Active City Innovation

    Die Universität Siegen möchte in einem experimentalen Szenario mit dem Schwerpunkt „Tanz und Bewegungsfreude im öffentlichen Raum“ BürgerInnen der Stadt Siegen mit Hilfe technischer Alltagslösungen im öffentlichen Raum zum (gemeinsamen) Tanzen und Bewegen motivieren. Erfahrungen und Ergebnisse dieses Szenarios und der entwickelten Anwendungen, sollen dem Projekt „Active City Innovation“ zu Verfügung gestellt werden, das als Ziel den Aufbau eines anwendbaren Leitfadens zur Entwicklung von aktiven Städten anstrebt. Aktive Städte versuchen durch innovative Konzepte die Bewegung und das Wohlbefinden der BürgerInnen zu steigern und damit die Lebensqualität zu verbessern.

    „Active City Innovation“ (ACI) ist ein Teilprojekt des großen internationalen Sport-Innovations-Netzwerks Projekts (SINN-I),  das sich zum Ziel gesetzt hat, Innovationen in den Bereichen Bewegung, Gesundheit und Lebens- und Bewegungsfreude weltweit zu fördern.

    Cognitive Village/ Vernetztes Dorf – Adaptiv-Lernende, technische Alltagsbegleiter im Alter (BMBF 2015-2018)

    Das Verbundprojekt verfolgt das Ziel, lernende und mobile technische Lösungen mit der vorhandenen, individuellen Wohnstruktur älterer Menschen und deren sozialen Netzwerken zu verknüpfen (Cognitive Village). Mit deren Hilfe sollen sich ältere Menschen in ihrem lokalen Umfeld leicht zugängliche Unterstützung organisieren, um trotz geistiger und/oder körperlicher Defizite weitgehend autonom leben zu können. Diese Lösungen sollen relativ einfach und niedrigschwellig gehalten werden, um die technischen, wirtschaftlichen und politischen Umsetzungschancen zu erhöhen. Nutzerperspektive älterer Menschen und ihrer sozialen Netzwerke sowie weiterer relevanter Stakeholder, die für eine Versorgung im Nahumfeld relevant sind, sichern partizipative Gestaltungsansätze eine alltagstaugliche Einbettung und Passung der technischen Lösungen. Die Lösungen werden in zwei unterschiedliche Wohnungs- und Siedlungsstrukturen eingebettet (Stadtteil und Dorf), um die Effekte des Wohn- und Lebensumfelds auf technische Lösungen ermitteln zu können.

      Developing telehealth systems to address global health challenges is becoming increasingly rapid. This can lead to increased complexity, especially in interdisciplinary research projects between industry, medicine and socio-informatics. Especially when partners do not share a disciplinary language or perspective. In this position paper we would like to reflect on the negotiation and development process of an adapted method to gather first practical experiences for the implementation of functionalities of a speech-based diagnostic system to support people with Long COVID symptoms and the associated challenges and influences with the project partners. We want to show that for the design of hybrid healthcare systems it is important, that an understanding between disciplines and approaches should be achieved.

      Recent advancements in data science and AI-driven healthcare technologies are bringing up novel opportunities for innovations, such as personalized medicine, self-diagnostic tools for everyday use, or hybrid healthcare models. However, the development of these technologies often overlooks the perspectives of patients and their families and socio-cultural surroundings, posing significant social, technological, and ethical challenges related to data bias, empowerment or surveillance, respectively. Bringing together interdisciplinary, interprofessional, and intersectoral collaboration in a systematic way seems to be a crucial element for adressing these issues and ensuring the meaningful integration of sensitive data and AI technologies into patient-centred healthcare arrangements. In this workshop, researchers and practitioners from diverse related disciplines, including HCI, AI, social and cultural sciences, healthcare, gerontology, etc., are invited to share their case studies on innovative health technologies and medical AI. Drawing from contextual best practices, as well as challenges and failures, the workshop organizers aim to collectively devise a systematic approach for co-designing and implementing telemedical innovations in real-world healthcare settings.

      doi:10.18420/MUC2023-MCI-WS06-108
      [BibTeX] [Abstract] [Download PDF]
      The value of hybrid approaches in healthcare has become apparent, in particular, during the recent Covid-19 pandemic, but remains important post-covid, as hybrid modes of operation can mitigate other issues, e.g. remote healthcare delivery, or sustainable healthcare. The advancement of data science and artificial intelligence enables these hybrid modes of healthcare, but also calls for integrated co-creative design approaches that bring together experts in AI, Socio-Informatics, UX and Ethics as well as citizens and practitioners. Despite a long-standing tradition of participatory approaches within HCI, an analysis of the literature shows that a deeper analysis of the practice of inter- and transdisciplinary participatory research in the healthcare field is missing. Furthermore, the aforementioned technological advancements bring new social, technical and ethical issues to the fore, among others questions of data bias, and empowerment of stakeholders. In this workshop we invite researchers and practitioners from diverse backgrounds to share their experiences and (design) case studies in co-creation of hybrid health systems and learn from contextualized best practices and failures. Through building on these experiences and cases and taking inspiration from praxeological research, we would like to collaborate towards a systematic approach for reflection in co-creation of hybrid healthcare systems.

      Participatory design is a widely used approach in technology development. Participation and active involvement of target groups help understand socio-cultural contexts and build bridges between the imaginary worlds of designers and future users. Especially if the worlds of imagination are very different, means are needed to open up shared creative spaces. When working with co-researchers who have little experience with technology, it is crucial to find methods that provide them with a joyful and meaningful path to technological topics. The question of motivation, digital literacy and the creation of supportive learning spaces are particularly important. In this paper, we elaborate the concepts of “Empirically-based Participatory Design Workshops” (EbPDW) and “Technology Probes” as means to illustrate the cooperative processes of mutually developing joint constructions of imaginations of actual and future IT usage between IT researchers and older project participants.

In order to fulfill requirements of the villages, which were identified in citizen workshops together with local stakeholders, a selection procedure was carried out and the decision was made to use an already existing and known neighborhood platform. We demonstrate the challenges posed by the fact that the platform was not actually designed for the specific requirements of rural villages, but for larger cities or urban areas, so that various processes of adaptation and implementation had to be carried out.

      [BibTeX] [Abstract]
      The current global pandemic caused by COVID-19 has turned many people’s daily lives upside down. The scale of the crisis forced countries to take increasingly drastic measures, from initial hygiene and protection measures to a complete lockdown of public and private life. To this end, public places were closed off, large events were banned for the time being, and public offerings and activities that lead to gatherings of people were not permitted. Older adults, as a particularly vulnerable group, suffer from the physical distancing measures when they have to reduce social activities. To bridge the physical distance problem, videoconferencing and live streaming solutions have gained popularity. The poster demonstrates research activities from the BMBF-funded “Active City Innovation” research project, exploring how dance and movement in public spaces can be supported by socio-technical systems with a special focus on older citizens. As part of the requirements analysis process, interviews and participant observations have been conducted with older dancers between 65 and 95 years in Siegen. The dance group had been meeting regularly to dance together for several years. Due to the COVID-19 restrictions, they had to cancel all joint dance activities on site. With the qualitative research approach, we aim to understand the motivations of the older dancers as well as their trainers and extrapolate implications for potential technical assistance from the findings. The results indicate that dancing, especially among older adults, is not comparable to other physical activities and that personal exchange and a sense of community are the main reasons for participation at the dance class. Digital solutions such as live streaming solutions are hardly seen as an alternative to exercise and tend to be rejected, since technical systems are not associated with leisure time and, above all, cannot convey the human feeling of the joint activity. The results also show that dancing or moving in a group provides support and structure in the living environment and is seen as a movement option especially by women, while men prefer other sportive activities, such as riding a bicycle. Our results may assist researchers and developers in implementing conferencing and live streaming systems to support physical activity promotion in older adults, and most importantly, raise awareness of social participation and sense of community as key motivators for using such systems.

    • Struzek, D. & Mueller, C. (2021)Introduction of a platform for fostering social participation and engagement in rural areas

      Gemeinsame Fachtagung der DGGG: „(Neue) Lebensformen im Alter“. doi:10.13140/RG.2.2.32157.23526
      [BibTeX] [Abstract]
      Rural areas are struggling with ever greater challenges. Young people are leaving, social spaces are disappearing, and public infrastructure is poor or lacking. Various technical communication channels are already being used to provide support. This has led to information overload and a lack of trust in new technologies, especially among the older population. In order to support 6 villages in mutual communication, we used the well-known neighborhood platform „nebenan.de,“ which was developed for urban areas, as part of the 3-year research project Digital Village Center (Digi.DoM), which focused on developing digitization strategies for rural areas. Older residents in particular should have a way to get help from others, post questions about technology, requests or offers for sale, and requests for rides, even across villages. Participatory approaches were used to identify requirements for the platform for rural areas. Appropriation of the platform took place in 6 technology workshops held in three villages. Although residents of all ages were welcome, only residents between the ages of 60 and 85 attended. The workshops helped us capture related needs of older users. To encourage interaction, a common group was created on the platform, accessible to all registered villagers from all villages. The meetings showed how hesitant the older users of the platform were and for the most part only surveyed the association work. In addition, the villages wished to have their own groups, to which other villages did not have access. Another problem was the lack of trust building, which was reflected in the fact that workshop participation decreased and participants were skeptical even about a list of participants. Significant, at the same time, was the village history, which was even seen as a reason for using the platform. Using the introduction process of nebenan.de as an example, the contribution reflects on a basic conflict of community technologies for the target group of older adults who have little experience with such applications. On the one hand, such community technologies only work if a sufficiently large mass of users participates („critical mass“). On the other hand, this is countered by worries of „non-users“ who are concerned with questions of security, privacy related to community processes, they are used to in their small village life. The poster shows how socially acceptable solutions were sought with the older people in negotiation processes.
