Designing a Mobile-First Culturally Responsible Readiness Assessment Tool using Design Thinking Strategies

• In Event: International and Institutional Perspectives
  In Roundtable Session: International and Institutional Perspectives-CLT

Short Description

This Roundtable Session will focus on reaching the mobile-first, low-resource student. To reach those that have been overlooked by status-quo educational approaches, it is helpful to utilize a human-centered design process. Using the Design Thinking process, we created a culturally appropriate mobile-only tool to assess the pre-enrollment learning needs of our potential students. This session will include an exchange of ideas and experiences with others reaching out to low-resource but mobile adept communities.
