    Redesigning Agricultural Hand Tools in Western Kenya WYCHE, OLSON, KARANU

    Redesigning Agricultural Hand Tools in Western Kenya WYCHE, OLSON, KARANU Research Article Redesigning Agricultural Hand Tools in Western Kenya: Considering Human-Centered Design in ICTD Susan Wyche Jennifer Olson Michigan State University, USA Mary Karanu Rural Outreach Africa, Kenya Abstract Human-centered design (HCD) is a creative approach to technology design that prioritizes users’ needs in the design process. It is characterized by three phases: understanding, ideation, and evaluation. Enthusiasm for using HCD per- sists among ICTD (information and communication technologies for development) researchers; funding agencies continue to support efforts to use the approach in development projects. However, published studies documenting each phase of the approach are few. Here, we present one such case study that documents our use of HCD to under- stand farmers’ hand tools in Kenya and to explore their ideas for new tools—designed to make weeding easier. We also present an evaluation of three redesigned tools, which were manufactured by jua kali (local metal workers). Our ªndings suggest that HCD resulted in improved tools. These ªndings motivate a discussion that elaborates on using HCD in ICTD. We suggest that the most signiªcant impacts of HCD may come from using the approach to under- stand diverse local conditions as they relate to design, and from jua kali integrating the approach into their design practices. Finally, we consider how HCD supports (and challenges) conducting ethical research. Keywords: agriculture, design thinking, human-centered design, HCI4D, jua kali, Kenya Introduction Over the last 15 years, there has been signiªcant enthusiasm among researchers, practitioners, and funding agencies for using a Human-Centered Design (HCD) approach to guide the development of technological solu- tions for socioeconomic problems in the developing world (Bazzano, Martin, Hicks, Faughnan, & Murphy, 2017; Gordon, Kramer, Moore, Yeung, & Agogino, 2017).

    terra australis 30 Terra Australis reports the results of archaeological and related research within the south and east of Asia, though mainly Australia, New Guinea and island Melanesia — lands that remained terra australis incognita to generations of prehistorians. Its subject is the settlement of the diverse environments in this isolated quarter of the globe by peoples who have maintained their discrete and traditional ways of life into the recent recorded or remembered past and at times into the observable present. Since the beginning of the series, the basic colour on the spine and cover has distinguished the regional distribution of topics as follows: ochre for Australia, green for New Guinea, red for South-East Asia and blue for the Pacific Islands. From 2001, issues with a gold spine will include conference proceedings, edited papers and monographs which in topic or desired format do not fit easily within the original arrangements. All volumes are numbered within the same series. List of volumes in Terra Australis Volume 1: Burrill Lake and Currarong: Coastal Sites in Southern New South Wales. R.J.

    Chapter 3: Yard Work & Gardening Yard work and gardening may be your hobby, your passion or simply weekend chores. It can be a great source of relaxation &therapy for your mind and body when done with ergonomics in mind. 4 hours in the garden can pose more ergonomic stress to your body than a full work week… Back aches from bending at the waist to plant, clear brush or lift bags of soil Tingling hands from prolonged grasping and squeezing of pruning sheers Sore and irritated elbows from hacking away brush and weeds with a trimmer Loss of grip strength or hand function after using a vibrating weed whacker all day Are your joints withering while your lawn and garden are flourishing? Consider cultivating some good ergonomics techniques so you can enjoy those yard and garden activities and the out-of-doors well into the future. 1 Yard Work and Ergonomic Risks The Ergonomic Risk Factors that contribute to musculoskeletal problems… Excessive or prolonged forward trunk bending to work at ground level Awkward hand/wrist postures due to tool handle size, shape or design Forceful lifting, carrying and placing of heavy loads Overhead use of arms and shoulders working on trees and tall shrubs High impact forceful motions when digging, picking or tilling Squatting and kneeling on knee joints Vibration from power tools such as mowers, weed whackers or clippers 2 Ergonomic Risks ? …not for the garden snail Kneeling, squatting and bending wouldn’t be such a problem if you were like one of those pesky garden snails… spineless invertebrate that can effortlessly conform to any posture or position.

    Adopt-A-Trail Handbook

    Town of Reading Adopt-A-Trail Program Handbook What is the Adopt-A-Trail Program? The Town of Reading’s Adopt-A-Trail Program is a volunteer program providing opportunities for members of the community to assist conservation area staff by monitoring, maintaining and enhancing trails and trailhead facilities. Who can adopt a trail? School and youth groups, scout troops, church, community and service organizations, businesses, families, individuals or groups of individuals can adopt a trail.

Other responsibilities include litter clean-up, maintaining the trailhead area including parking lot, bulletin board and trail signs, and reporting vandalism, trail hazards or safety issues. Why should you participate? Adopting a trail provides an opportunity for you to be actively involved in conservation. Helping to maintain and enhance existing trails improves the resource for all to enjoy. The effort brings trail and nature enthusiasts closer to the environment and their community. Enjoy the time outdoors and personal satisfaction gained through volunteering on a conservation trail. How to get started: If you have a specific Conservation Area or trail in mind, let us know. If the trail you choose is available for adoption, we'll get you set up right away.
