This separate from any formal design research/user research activities they may be engaged in, but just to sharpen skills in noticing (the word we used, actually), as well as reflecting and storytelling it. http://www.portigal.com/blog/design-research-class-student-blogs-and-flickr-accounts/ has more about what they've been doing.

Best, Grant Peter, thanks, and there is a show on American TV called Psych that features noticing in a big way. Thanks. Best, Grant Tom, thanks, ordering it now.

The other profession who live or die by what they notice, sometimes literally, are spies. There is a nice scene in a restaurant in the movie, "Spy Game", where an old pro (played by Robert Redford) instructs a neophyte (Brad Pitt) in noticing. One hopes the CIA still do this stuff . . .

That's about as close as I can think of a book on noticing. I suppose Nicholson Baker's "The Mezzanine" would be a literary book on noticing with a decidedly offbeat neurotic bent to it, and not something you'd have a child read...
