In the video of Bill Moggridge's lecture he' defines "design as a collaborative process." Meaning bringing individuals from various background and fields to generate design ideas in order to design effectively for various users.

In design we must design based on "connectivity, human interface and interaction." Meaning we must consider the users as individuals in the context of the design process and one must involve the people we want to create for in their work.

One example Bill Moggridge talks about in his lecture is the iPhone. The iPhone is a participatory design in which involves the users to personalize and create a sense of attachment to the design of the product.

Another example Bill mentions in his lecture is the Red Cross Donor program, in which is designed to generate a more pleasant experience and value to users when donating blood. The design is to attempt to move away from the traditional gloomy experiences of going to a hospital to donate blood and creates a more interactive experience by taking pictures of individuals and letting them write a short blurb on why they donated blood. This creates a participatory design that allows users to engage in the process of donating and feel like they are making a real contribution to society.
