Empathy - week 1

This week we were introduced to our first assignment for this paper.
I'm in stream B with Lee and Mark


To consider:

Understand the brief
Understand the audience
Understand the context
Research
Gain insight   




1st session

We had an introduction lecture on design thinking, global context, student creativity and a run-down of what our brief entails. Then Sam from Lifehack spoke on 'everyday-well being' to give us more of an understanding.

We returned to class and talked in groups about well-being and what it means to us, this helped to open up a bit and listen to other students opinions on the at times 'touchy' subject.


2nd session

Lifehack Workshop
 Our stream as a whole took part in an interactive workshop through various exercises unfolding what kinds of well-being there are, when have we felt un-well and why? Who am I in relation to these other people? What are we going to do together?

 We began to brainstorm our own ideas ready to bring in next week to team up.
 Where to next? The '8 points.'
