1. Holistic Design the system as a whole.

Identify problems that people encounter throughout the whole system.

Find good combinations of system supportto collecting and reflecting on data.

2. Human-Centered What information should a person collect?

What problems do users encounter with the system?

How does the person gain self-knowledge from the data they collect?
