am i on track???

ok, Since i was away from this blog, i had actually research more on the problems..

environment chosen: House, Kitchen? ( still not confirm-i want to research more for more innovative problems!!!)
target user: Senior citizen!!( i am really confident with this)

for a start, i have actually made an observation on my grandmother and mother doing their laundry. many problems i have discovered. (more explicit details on journal!! plus pictures!!) but the key main point is here, i need to do more research on senior citizens. Just now during D&T lesson, mr Fiz actually bring up the point of Singapore's ageing population. i am sure that there are many ways for me to go... so i need to..:

- DO MORE RESEARCH ON SENIOR CITIZENS!!
=>what they need? are they staying with family or alone? do they need help if they are alone? what problems do they encounter when they staying alone... ARE THEY INDEPENDANT??
- ELABORATE MORE ON MY CURRENT SITUATION!!
=> i need to explain more detail on the problem, maybe more innovative problems? or just a simple ideaa that suddenly pop-up in mind??
- DRAW UP ANY ITCHING IDEAS!!
=> there is no wrong to draw out whats itching in my mind now!!
-DO A SURVEY??
=> currently asking friends about their grandparents. what they( senior citizens) need? are they living comfortable? are they able to live independantly? what problems do they encounter..

i think thats all that i can think.(if there's more i will put it on my design journal) :)
