Real-world context
Children with ongoing treatments often miss doses because reminders are boring, confusing or rely on a busy adult. Missed medicine can seriously affect their recovery.
The challenge
Design a way to help children remember to take their medicines on time. Study who is affected, dig past the obvious symptoms to the real root causes, and design a solution that could actually work in the real world. There is no single correct answer — what matters is the quality of your thinking, the stakeholders you consider, and how clearly you justify your chosen direction.
Reflection prompts
- Who is most affected by this problem, and how did you account for them?
- What is the single biggest risk to your solution working?
- Which assumption, if wrong, would break your whole idea?
