LAST ASSIGNMENT:

PROTOTYPE AND TEST

By Paulina Humeres

FIRST DEFINITION

How to increase students’s motivation with

their career, that is influenced with the

type of clinical activities they do, focused

to complete clinical procedures, forgetting

that the most important thing are patients

AFTER FEED BACK AND PEER EVALUATION

NEW DEFINITION OF THE PROBLEM:

How to increase motivation of students at last year of Dental School, that feel their clinic work is

without sense?

SOLUTIONS THAT I CHOSE AMONG THE 50th THAT I IDENTIFICATED AT THE LAST ASSIGNMENT

(prototype of the first two)

1. Apply survey for patients to evaluate their satisfaction to

student attention.

2. Make students participate in some clinical tasks, when

their patient don't come, help at delivering dental material

3. Allow students to put at their clinic some personal thing

that made them comfortable

This circles will be made with the same material of white board.

Patients will write their messages with white board marker

Results:

a) They said that the second option wasn’t a solution for their motivation problem.

b) They liked the solution related with patients experience and they suggested that it would be good take pictures of the mural and upload at their social net to share with everybody patients’s opinions

I ASKED SOME STUDENTS ABOUT THEIR OPINIONS FOR THE SOLUTIONS I HAVE DESIGNED

SO, AFTER THIS FEED BACK, I REORGANIZED MY OPTIONS, AND ASKED THEM ON OTHER SOLUTIONS

THAT I HAD DEFINED AT MY MIND MAP

1. Play music at the clinic to make a friendly environment

2. Allow students to use at clinic tasks, some personal thing

that could make them feel comfortable, and I suggested to

design their own clinical hat. They loved both options!

So, finally, my prototypes are:

1. Create a mural with the

comments and suggestions of

patients

2. Take a picture of this mural

once a week

3. Upload the images at social net

that students

visit

1

Allow to use an original clinical hat, and put music to transform clinical environment more friendly

This is how they look now
