We identify different kinds of influences that a designer can introduce at design time, and that an expert can introduce using social interactions, and we use these to characterise a two-dimensional design space. As well as discussing how the two sources of influence affect each other, we propose how learning performance typically varies as a result, and present some empirical findings. date: 2004 date_type: published volume: 117 publisher: Lund University Cognitive Studies pagerange: 75-82 refereed: TRUE citation: Marom, Yuval and Haynes, Gillian (2004) Influencing Robot Learning Through Design and Social Interactions: A Balancing Framework.
