Project Overview

Brief

We were asked to as a group collectively map the ways people

have developed strategies to adapt to COVID related lockdown;

within their professional and/or personal lives.

We were given five target groups and were to choose one to focus

on;

1. Early learners

2. Home-carers

3. People of physical/social disadvantage

4. People who have experience loss

5. Older adults

Individually we were asked to engage with a user (from within your

family/friendship network) for an ethics-based approach to data

collection. Find out how the users life had been affected by COVID

and to sketch provocative, emotional & playful solutions; which

address subject need.

Chosen group

I chose the target group of early learners. It would be an

opportunity to learn how schools adapted to the pandemic and

their current counter measures, along with discovering any ways

to upgrade their current system.
