Experimentation
A UX design module at Hyper Island where the mindset where “trust the process” and “learn fast” is key to transform needs into values.
Presented and feedback from Bonnier. Teamwork with Helena Lindhe.
ENGAGE CHILDREN IN READING
Fewer children consume papers and books and a big part of children’s vocabulary come from reading and being read for and analyzing written text. How can we as UX designers find solutions to help children gain a bigger vocabulary to be able to take an active part in society.
Problem statement
Young children, and their parents, need help to create and nurture an engagement and a positive experience around reading and written text in order to enable a future role in society on equal terms.
