Final Idea
Hello! These are our revised idea for the interface that briefly shows what we understood from our first critic session. This time, we aimed to approach to the project with Montessori methods as you suggested. Thank you! Revised-Idea-Team-10Download
Revised Idea
Hey guys! I hope you're all doing well. Here is my initial ideas and sketches for your brief: Idea 1: Interactive Digital Literacy Tablet We can design an interface for a tablet that is designed to slowly educate elderly who are not familiar with technology at all by preliminary technological lessons that will introduce concepts and make them be practicable on the tablet also. Following that, they will be able to access specialized interface lessons for apps, phones, computers about tutorials for banking actions, healthcare appointments, mails, messages, calls etc. Idea 2: Digital Literacy Handbook Since the elderly is not famliar with technology at all we can introduce them a good old solution that they are familiar with: reading! With a hardback handbook design they will be able to learn essential technology and digital literacy tips that are specialized for their wants and needs. Since the handbook will cover any device that they may interact with, they will be able to practice the info they learn on the devices they own.
Initial Ideas from Aras
Hello! These are my initial ideas. 1. Telephone line for elderly This is a service design idea about a call line only accessible to elderly people. When one calls the line, they are asked what their problem is about. It may be bank, health, or government. A specialist on the line teaches or handles the bureaucratic tasks for the elderly. 2. Bureaucratic Boxes This is a design idea that works like a phone box. Elderly people can solve their problems via an easy ui specially designed for people who are not used to the digital world. This product could be used in neighborhoods. 3. Analog Videocall Analog Videocall is designed for people who has difficult time seeing or wants a telephone that they could instantly video call their loved ones. It works with a rotary wheel and product shows and voices over the names on it before calling.
Yağmur – Initial Ideas
Hey! Here are my very bare-bones initial ideas Print This one is the very first -and obvious- idea: a handheld smart device designed to be familiar and easy to learn, and friendly to the elderly. It has a built-in AI assistant you can interact with by talking or typing. The applications for banks and medical services, instant chat/call apps, and a browser can be installed. Your standard all-mighty device This one, the digital magnifying glass, is a helper device designed to aid the elderly as they are using the devices they already have. They can magnify, hear the voiceover and research the meaning of texts and buttons, and take pictures for future reference. Helps the elderly learn the written, visual, and practical language of any and every device, website, or application. Can't wait to hear your comments!

Here is our brief!
We are Team 10: out of ten, a team of three designers from Turkey. Yağmur: Hello! I am from Istanbul and I'm studying Industrial Design at METU. Since I enjoy exploring and finding fun from everyday items, one of my passions is toy design. Seeing a child excited about a toy I created is an amazing feeling that motivates me to design more. I do enjoy collecting postcards, mostly when I travel but I also do not hesitate to ask for a postcard if one of my loved ones is going to be out of the city. (And a handwritten note is highly appreciated). I like to spend my time urban sketching with watercolors and reading crime fiction. I also tend to listen to podcasts and watch soap operas while I sketch. It is an addiction! Lastly, I may say I play video games but I usually enjoy it if I play with my friends since it is more fun that way. I have two pet birds who are currently in Istanbul, now I stay in METU dormitories with my roommate and my plants. mail: yagmurecearslan@gmail.com instagram: yagmur.rsln Başak: Hi! I'm a third-year Industrial Design student in Middle East Technical University from İzmir, Turkey. Being a product designer is my dream job and I'm fascinated by different cultures and people, so I'm very excited to be a part of this project :). I enjoy going to the theatre and watching plays and musicals, going to concerts, playing video games, and creating colorful make-up looks. I'm also studying Japanese, so 日本語を話せる人と練習したいんだよ。 Currently, my favorite TV shows are GenV, What We Do in the Shadows, Inside No. 9, and Community (5th rewatch). I unwind and also express my love to loved ones by making and gifting handmade crafts, and baking desserts - however much I can while living in a dorm. Nice to meet you! instagram: @basak_akkurt, @my_journey_in_design e-mail: basakakkurt00@gmail.com Aras: Hey! I'm Aras, 21 year old designer candidate, a 3rd grader, from METU. I was born in Istanbul, the cultural center and exhausting metropolis of Turkey. I spent most of my childhood and adolescence in my room creating stuff to express the stuff I was dealing with. Other than that I was hanging around the town with friends, taking photographs, drinking while going through major decade-defining events in Turkey. After that, I started a new chapter in Ankara, after the pandemic, starting my lessons in METU as a industrial designer student. I could say my life has been more peaceful and organized after I got used to moving with my friends' apartment in Ankara, in February. Recently, I visited Tbilisi, Georgia by myself for as a personal treat and tasted delicious wine, met new people and saw beautiful artworks. And hopefully, next spring I'll be studying in Deusto University (Bilbao, Spain) thanks to my Erasmus program also planning to visit a lot more cities like Barcelona, Madrid, Milano, Rome etc. Careerwise, I'm currently working as a part-time UX/UI - Graphic designer at a fintech…
