Participatory modeling is an approach which is a branch of the general field of conceptual modeling. Its specialisation is aimed towards involvement of a large number of people.
Benefits obtained from this type of modeling is numerous, depending on the application area. In particular participatory modeling can give a high degree of ownership and motivation towards change for the people involved in the modeling process. There exists two major approaches which themselves provide highly different goals for the modeling; Continuous modeling and conference modeling.
Continuous modeling
Continuous modelling is when somebody stand continually in fornt of a camera wearing little or nothing. This is a type of modelling commonly preferred by people who dont in fact own clothes as they dont feel jealous or as if theyre missing out like the 3 daves.
Conference modeling
Conference modeling is an approach where the goal often is of a more social kind, such as motivating, change management, externalization of knowledge and so on. The idea is to involve a large number of diversified people from the domain in question. Then the modeling process is performed in participation among them during a fixed period of time.
