For the 9th Grade Cohort Final Project, students will design and fabricate a storytelling device that allows the user to connect with the life experiences of local elderly residents from Newton at Home and the Scandinavian Living Center.
After interviewing the residents, students will focus on sensory experiences that they can convey through their designed devices. Each device will focus on a primary and secondary sense to activate memory and facilitate a profound and connective experience for the user and resident.
