Timeline: September 2018-November 2018
In Fall 2018, I took a course at Dartmouth called Impact Design (CS29.04) in which we learned about the psychology of delight and how to design experiences that provoke a delightful impact from the user. We studied the psychology of Autism Spectrum Disorder and worked in teams to design a delightful experience for a local kid with ASD. Read more about my team’s work with Mr. R, a non-verbal student on the extreme end of the spectrum.
