Individual meetings about research work-to-date. 

Homework: Complete Step 4: Generate Ideas/Brainstorming: create a range of ideas for subtle interventions that could influence the desired behavior. 

For next class bring in a slide deck of idea sketches with moodboards to further visualize/contextualize ideas. Sketches can be drawn or made digitally, but make sure they are presentable via a pdf on screen.

For those creating interventions that might need a name and simple brand identity then begin sketching what that might look like.

For those that will be providing information or “how to” you will need to collect that information and/or write that copy.

For all of you...you will need to communicate how this thing will exist in the world. What it will look like, feel like, talk like, dress like. Use tools like a moodboard to do that.

Use your maps, persona(s) and design thinking visualizations to help set up your ideas. 

Post your slide decks here: PROJECT_2_BEHAVIOR_CHANGE
