Learning Outcomes
By the end of this lesson, learners will be able to:1) Apply design thinking principles to a real-world, human-centred healthcare challenge.
2) Demonstrate empathy by identifying the cognitive, emotional, and technological needs of elderly dementia users.
3) Define a clear, user-centred problem statement grounded in user insights.
4) Generate and refine design ideas that prioritise accessibility, emotional reassurance, and trust.
5) Create a low-fidelity prototype that communicates core functionality and user experience.
6) Use feedback and reflection to iteratively improve a design solution.
