Homework Designing for Safety in Labor & Delivery 2016

Due by Tuesday, January 26:

As a group:

Create a persona, empathy map, synthesize (find patterns or outliers on map), and a minimum of three need statements or “points of view” with your group. Be prepared to share with the class the story of your group’s persona, insights you have uncovered from your synthesis work and your need statements. Presentations will be informal (no slides) just bring your scrappy, but thoughtful work, and tape it up on a white board. Towards the end of class we will debrief about this homework experience.

Please see these two slide shows to help you with the assignment:

Persona
