DOSSIER AND PRESENTATION PREP
We have been working on our dossier and our presentation over the week along with gathering everything we need for our workbook. It has been just a stressful development week. I think our progress has gone ahead well with our dossier. I loved working with Natalie she was and is so chill. We are pretty much homies now except at some times I'm too indian for her.

REFINING & BEGINNING DOSSIER
Okay so now we are up to the finalising stage of refinement of the actual app. We have user tested and it seems that it is simple and easy to use, pretty much straightforward. The users tend to like the personalisation of the avatar as opposed to picking a set avatar like our previous iterations. At this stage I'm pretty relaxed with our progress just need to fully continue with our dossier and how we will present.
Since we just had the app before we thought about how posters could lead into the app because we need a starting touchpoint. We have also thought about a diary and sticker 'starter pack' that children may get from counselling services or divorce lawyer companies. Pretty much just put everything into our dossier yet have a more simplistic presentation. Would need to make sure everything links in some way and remember to refer to the five ways of wellbeing.

DEVELOPMENT AND IDEATION
We got really stuck into the nitty gritty stuff for the app because it has to function from every aspect for better user testing and clarity. Testing will be done soon as much as we can.
Class was fun today because we pretty much just cut out colour swatches and finally agreed on our colour palette and finally the app name. Far out it was a headache but we got there!! It's going to be called UPal.
From today it is my job to look at the 'Before' aspect of how the user gets to the actual app. So I'll be looking at marketing poster formats and an actual display font for our app and poster. This project isn't just looking at the solution but the overall picture which is something we don't always have to do initially. We have thought about how the poster/advertising of the app could/would be done through other services such as divorce lawyers, doctors and youth services. We are also wanting that there should be a time where the user doesn't need the app anymore and feels free/relieved.
We also feel we might sign up to the workshop for prototyping because we do think our app is going somewhere and be helpful. In terms of the 5 aspects of wellbeing We just need to carry on and keep refining everything. I feel as if we are at a good place maybe just need to get a bit more done so we can user test and begin our pdf dossier.
