Abstract : This paper offers context and culture elicitation in
an inter-cultural and multi-disciplinary setting of ICT design.
Localised usability evaluation (LUE) is augmented with a socio-technical
evaluation tool (STEM) as a methodological approach to expose and
address issues in a collaborative ICT design within the Village
e-Science for Life (VeSeL) project in rural Kenya. The paper argues that
designers need to locally identify context and culture in situ and
further explicate their implications through the design process and at
the global level. Stakeholders' context, culture, decisions, agendas,
expectations, disciplines and requirements need to be locally identified
and globally evaluated to ensure a fit for purpose solution.
