本文通过挖掘设计师留下的数字足迹来研究设计中的迭代和固定。高中生使用计算机辅助设计软件在城市地区建造建筑物，目的是应用被动式太阳能设计技术，确保建筑物全年获得最佳太阳能。学生们被要求完成三种不同的设计。记录了细粒度数据，包括设计动作、中间构件和反思笔记。开发了计算分析程序，通过三个指标挖掘日志：(A)使用能源分析工具的行动频率；(B)最终设计的太阳能性能；(C)原型和最终设计之间的太阳能性能差异。这些指标的三角结果表明有三种类型的迭代--有效、不充分和无效。超过一半的参与者在第一次设计时被检测到是有效的迭代，并在项目结束时变得越来越专注，这与之前关于大学生和职业设计师的注视效应的发现是一致的。总体而言，这些结果证明了应用计算分析来调查复杂的设计过程的力量。这项工作的发现为如何定量评估和研究学生在设计项目中的表现和过程提供了启示。
This paper investigates iteration and fixation in design by mining digital footprints left by designers. High school students used computer-aided design software to create buildings in an urban area, with the goal of applying passive solar design techniques to ensure optimal solar gains of the buildings throughout a year. Students were required to complete three different designs. Fine-grained data including design actions, intermediate artifacts, and reflection notes were logged. Computational analytics programs were developed to mine the logs through three indicators: (a) frequency of the action of using energy analysis tools; (b) solar performance of the final designs; and (c) difference in solar performance between the prototype and final designs. Triangulating results from the indicators suggests three types of iteration—efficacious, inadequate and ineffective. Over half of the participants were detected as being efficacious iterative during the first design and becoming more and more fixated toward the end of the project, which resonates with previous findings on fixation effect among college students and professional designers. Overall the results demonstrate the power of applying computational analytics to investigate complex design processes. Findings from this work shed light on how to quantitatively assess and research student performance and processes during design projects.
