Colour print testing to find a not-ugly yellow

Week 10.2

uhhhh class

10.1 #Supercrit

Peer feedback:

• The colour scheme is good and feeling fitting for the subject matter. However, the yellow is a bit harsh; should be made softer/more orangey.
• Feels directed at kids without being too childish - good!
• Make more directed at the kid; maybe a moving pack given by the old school before leaving OR by the new school upon arrival
• Push the app more. Don't downplay it as optional; confidently promote it.
• Add a little bit more to the pamphlet template (label lines for date/location) so it's not just a bunch of lines.
• Carsickness should be considered in the moving day section on the website

To do next:

• Print text yellows - find a good one.

Laid out our entire project on the ground

Next class is SUPER CRIT wherein we have to do a concise presentation, explaining the scope of our whole project.

I've organized mine based on my user journey, as my touchpoints are very linear in nature and follow the process of moving.

Order:

• Context
• Objective
• Audience profile
• Touch point #1 - the website
• Moving day (post website)
• Touch point #2 - the pamphlet
• Touch point #3 - the app
• End of journey, app no longer needed
• 5 ways to well being (wrap up whole project)

I've switched the focus of my app from a achievement based system to be more like a digital scrap book. The achievements still felt a bit too much like a school worksheet. A scrapbook is less rule oriented, and more free for the kids to express themselves. They'll still be encouraged to get out, document their surroundings, and write about them, but as a suggestion not a task.

Cross-Discipline Exchange Meet Up 3

We met up in the fashion block to talk about our projects and how far along we are.

I told them about where my project is now: resources for parents moving their kids and a scrapbook style app to help kids feel more connected to their new home.

The others thought it was a good idea; they shared stories of their own of moving when in primary school, either between cities or from other countries, and how hard it was to get settled in, especially later in the year.
