Journal Entry For
Project 2 - Mini Proposal
💡
Create a mini-proposal with work plan.
  • Mini-Proposal:
    • Describe what you want to design and the context (who, where, when, why & how). Include (a) a sentence about your team’s personal connection to this context, (b) the sustainability element, and (c) a project code-name. <100 words.
    • Example:

      We love playing games. And we are committed to sustainability lifestyles. Our team will design a sustainability gamification teaching & research laboratory in XYZ at Stanford University for students interested in learning & developing product designs that emphasize UX-motivated playability in sustainability human-behavior & human-mindset change. Our team is interested in applying positive psychology with AI machine learning & personal sensor technologies to design frameworks & solutions for clinical & real-world applications in education, healthcare & community well-being, among others. This is PROJECT PINBALL WIZARD.

  • Work Plan:
    • Project Management Practice - Make a table of action items, deliverables, start & completion dates, & who will have primary responsibility for driving & delivering. The header action items should include each of the design thinking components in our process; list specific tasks as sub-items.
    • Example:

      Start
      End

Mini Proposal (<100 Words)

  • What you want to design
  • Context (who, where, when, why & how)
  • Include:
    • a sentence about your team’s personal connection to this context
    • the sustainability element
    • a project code-name

We are all Stanford students, and we’re all committed to sustainable mental health choices. Wellness shouldn’t be a place where you go to feel well, it should be everywhere, like air.

Our team will design a third-space where students will be able to feel well, relaxed, recover energy and reduce the probability of mental health diseases.

This project will be designed as a plug-in space that can be installed in every major building on campus to give all students access to pleasant spaces anytime they need.

We’re interested in applying a wide range of solutions, from materials to resources through technologies and behaviours. This is BURN BRIGHT program.
