1. Prototype and Test
Claudia Ortega

2. Problem:
How to help students to
“wake up” (with attitude and
preparation) to this new
phase in their lives.
The office of employability in the University
have the following problem when they help
student to go through the way of transition:

3. 1st Idea!
New forms to communicate the
experience of others
Videos of reflection selecting a
good song or compose it with
phrases (given by recent
graduates) …together create
lyrics of a new song

4. 1st Prototype!
Produce a video like this, but with photos of
students that got a good job or create their
own business (even showing the company
logo) looking for the conection between their
own experience

5. The phrases are the way they lived the
transition, they could be more empathic
with students
We could open the composition for
a contest
You need someone helping in the
production, to create a good product.
Do you think the students could be
motivate by this effort?
Do you believe the song could be
“good” enough?
You could share the experience with
other campus.
Students like to promote their
university, showing good experiences
The idea is good, but maybe you
should integrate a good team of
singers from the University.

6. 2nd Idea!
Follow a live reality show of five
students during their first three
months of transition

7. There are students that want to show
themselves
Obtained support by outside famous
figura of TV or Radio, to promote the
show
They could follow it by social media
The production could have a
profesional support .
How could you select the students?
Do you expect every case, will be a
sucess case?
Try to find different profiles, looking
for different dreams
What could be the prize?

8. Reflection
a. What you learned by testing your prototypes
You begin to read people´s gestures and comments. They could show
reactions that maybe don´t match with their “sayings”.
There are many ideas you can´t show with the first version of the
prototype, but you can understand better how to improve it.
b. What you would do next if you were to continue working on the
project.
I really want to help the office in my University, I will impulse the reality
show, looking to raise money to do it! I think it is a good experiment!
