Challenge

I am a first semester student of software engineering and one of my challenges is to help

people's health, as part of the health staff I want to focus on the use of technology as a

therapeutic means in patients with early stage Alzheimer's diagnosis in order to improve

slow the progression of their pathology. The idea is to create several memory games

within an application to help with the progressive loss of memory. The project would be

carried out with the internal staff of the university. It is planned to launch the first prototype

game within a month and a half. This prototype hopes to reach the community of

neurological physiotherapists in charge of patients with the aforementioned pathology.

Selection

Within the project we will take into account all the tools previously learned, so we will be

fully prepared to make use of learning lunch, in order to materialize the main idea and

make the first prototype.

Application

For our first prototype we will focus especially on what kind of games can be used to

meet our main objective, different methods of information gathering in the community of

physical therapists will be performed with the main purpose of structuring the first

prototype. To perform this type of work our staff will have to get more information about

the main topic, it is recommended to collect information from experts in the field or

through existing information on the internet. In order to improve the prototype realization

time, workshops will be held at least three times a week with the main objective of

discussing ideas, presenting completed tasks and answering questions.

After that, we will fully concentrate on the complete fulfillment of our tasks that, if not

completed, would delay almost entirely the launching of the first prototype. The main

objective is to collect information internally, that is to say with the people who are part of

the project with the main objective of knowing their opinion about the project, that is to

say, to know essentially how our colleagues feel about this project, if the process is clear,

if all the information they received is enough or if more information is needed. This

information gathering is expected to take place in the last week of the first month.

Insight and approach

In this prototype the biggest drawback that can be found is the fact of the lack of

information or knowledge on the subject as well as the fact of not knowing exactly the

situation of the people who will make use of this prototype even so this drawback will be

taken into account and an immersive training will be conducted to all staff in order to

have sufficient knowledge and empathy with potential customers.

For the launching of the first prototype it is expected to be carried out first with a small

group of patients accompanied by their physiotherapists and to launch the idea, it is

expected to obtain significant results after a few months while working with feedback

from physiotherapists and patients. Once all the inconveniences have been solved, it

can be launched on a larger scale, that is to say, to a larger group, and we could start

thinking about the beginning of the second prototype.
