Tell us how you plan to do your project

  • What process(es) of research and experimentation will you use?

    I will use IDEO methods as my processes of research and experimentation。
  • Why are these the right methods?

    Affinity Diagram
    This is a useful way to identify connections between issues and reveal innovation opportunities. I know that it is difficult to explain a new concept to people, so I can explain it with approximate simple concepts. 

    Survey&Quastionnaires
    I need to set some questions by myself and do a guided survey. This is the key to gathering people's thoughts.

    Personal Inventory
    This is a very important step, through the document of everyone's important items, I can see the focus of this person's life. I'm going to focus on observing this step and finding similarities between the different egos to see how interesting the outcome can be.

    Flow Analysis
    This helps me to analyze bottlenecks and opportunities, and make timely adjustments and improvements.

    Collage
    This allows people to choose their own images and arrange them and interpret them. This gives me an idea of how well the audience understands the concept and helps them understand complex theme. My theme is very suitable for the method of collage.

  • How you will record what you do and keep track of what you have done?

    Document every progress in workflow and draw Flow Analysis
  • How will you evaluate the success of these methods?

    One of my aims is to make the audience understand clearly and communicate effectively. So I will evaluate the success of these methods based on the understanding of the audience.
