To increase the students motivation during PE classes the Sport-i vests were created. These vests consist of several components, namely the vests itself, the corresponding app for the teaches and the app for the students, adding interactive technology to conventional vests for PE classes and sport trainings.
Students can choose how they want their PE class to look like and they can choose at what level they see themselves play. This will help with the motivation because the students are now more involved in the class and they are more likely to play a sport that they actually want to play.
In the students app students can see their data of the past lessons. They can get an insight in their development and they can set goals they want to achieve during the next few lessons.
This Project 1 was learnful for me in mnay aspects, especially in running a complete design process. During this process with different iterations, it became clear to me that I feel the most enpowered with competition and collaboration in the design. This means persuading and motivating people towards playful and active environments.
During the project, I was able to already incorporate skills and knowledge from the very first courses into the design process. This included the design concept analysis, user test, electronics and presenting which I learned during previous courses. It was very thaught to see how these design steps would fit in a design project.
