Description

Explore the gap between technology design and real-world application with Understanding Creative Users of ICTs: Users as Social Actors by Routledge. This book examines the disconnect between what developers intend and how people actually use Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs). Rather than acting as simple agents for designers, individual users often adapt new technologies to fit their existing social lives and meanings. This study looks at how people integrate ICTs into their pre-existing social webs, leading to imaginative and creative uses that original designers never planned. By viewing users as social actors, this work provides a deep look at how technology is reshaped by the complex relations and social contexts of the people using it every day.

Key Features

Examines the disconnect between developer design intent and actual user needs in the realm of ICTs.

Analyzes how individual users function as social actors within complex webs of relations and meanings.

Investigates how people fit new technologies into pre-existing social structures rather than changing their lives to fit the tech.

Provides insight into the imaginative and creative ways new technologies are used in ways not envisaged by original designers.

Offers a scholarly perspective on the social impact and adaptation of Information and Communication Technologies.
