Our goal of this project was to create a product to help with the mental wellbeing of a service partner of the college, or use sport and stem.
We used the design thinking process, we used this to help us on the journey, the first thing we did was empathise and decided on a target audience from the school partners. We decided on RAAFA, then we moved onto the define stage we found what these people needed whether it was a service or product. Then we began to ideate and brainstormed products some of our first ideas were a nature journal, quiz finally we began the prototype stage after we decided on our product we began designing and building the product because this job would take multiple weeks we made a plan of what we each person would do each week and followed that plan. Once our product was completed we decided to put our product to test and decided to visit RAAFA the service partner of All Saints College, at RAAFA we met on a Tuesday afternoon with retired people and asked them to test our product. Then we got feedback from the residents. In week 9 we had our presentation were we presented to parents, students and teachers at All Saints.
Some of the main capabilities that we used were Collaboration when we needed to work together in groups which required teamwork, Problem Solving when we encountered a problem such as finding a good time that suited everyone one to visit RAAFA, Resilient when , Organised. Some capabilities I developed further are my collaboration skills, organisation, resilience and effective communication.
Our product provided mental mindfulness to the residents of RAAFA
Our project was to put together stem and wellbeing to form a product for a target audience, our target audience was young or old people. Our final product was a mindfulness booklet for the retired residents of RAAFA.
We thought this product would be good for the residents of RAAFA because they are the most effected by Covid-19 being isolated from everyone.
