What was the challenge We use tools very often, loose the bolts, tighten the screws, or make something repaired. However, we always store these tools in drawer or somewhere without conspicuousness, because most of them are so heavy, bulky, and ugly!! You don’t want to carry them in your bag or pocket, not to mention showing off with others.

16

Design solution Most of the time, we just happen to tighten the bolts of our bike, furniture, or household gadgets that won’t come loose, we'll expect to have a dapper one on hand. The optimized tool we desire is lightweight, compact, and portable; it’s even better to support various sizes of bolts & screws underlying the modular design with replaceable bits.

17

Pop-A-Point Design But carrying numerous bits is another trouble. Like some other replaceable-bits screwdrivers you saw at Home Depot, there might be an additional case required for bits packaging, thus we hope to design an "All-in-One" solution. What's more, we aim to redefine and make your daily tools not only handy but also beauteous, nothing you need to hide in any dress or any occasion.

Inspired by “Pop-A-Point” rainbow pen & mechanical pencil (do you remember owning and playing this funny pen as kids?), we found a smart way to collect and swap bits more easily & flexibly. With similar methods of replacing refills, you’ll simply insert and interchange demanding bits into the pen, all are compactly organized inside that you’ll never worry to lose any one at all ~ bravo!

18

21

Pop-A-Point Bits Each pen allows depositing 6 bits, you only need to push a bit into the barrel from backside for replacement. So much fun and flexibility!

Marking Icon Conveniently lets you discover a specific bit inside the barrel via looking through thewindow.

The Cap offers protection to the lead-sleeve form stabbing your pocket or bag.

Strong Magnet not only keeps the cap slipping on pen, but also makes the bits grabbed smoothly.

22

23

Portable and Minimal In addition, this Tool Pen is super-gorgeous, you shall ignore it’s a tool but feel like you're holding one swank writing instrument instead.

While it’s silently in your pocket & bag, or placed on a desk, we believe everybody will agree it’s an elegant “pen”.

Problem description While a lifeguard throwing the lifebuoy, it happens cannot be accurate because of the wind or the waves, needless to say if an ordinary people to do it.

30

What was the challenge If the lifebuoy cannot be accurately sent to people who is in need will delay the time of rescue. But every second is important during the rescue, especially in dangerous open water. If the buoy cannot be sent near the people in the water it would be useless, therefore we want to design a lifebuoy that can expand the surface, even we cannot throw accurately the people in water can still get rescued.

31

Design solution Expand lifebuoy is a life buoy expand the surface of rescue area.

The handle of the lifebuoy will separate while throwing out because of centrifugal force. Four handles around the lifebuoy double the surface of rescue. People in the water can reach the lifebuoy easier and decrease the time of rescue, increase the chance of success.

32

How to use?

Throwing it rotating and the four handles will separate by centrifugal force. Put handles in the four hatches when storage.

33

Experimental Model We made a model of lighter PU foam to test if it achieves the predicted effect. After several experiments and adjusted the size, scale and weight of handles. Finally found a best model that corresponds with the expectation that evenly separates while throwing out.

What was the challenge?

It is a challenge for parents that their kids don't like to wash hands. If children don't wash their hands with soap, the germs could not be killed. Moreover, children tend to be infected when they put their hands inside their mouths. Therefore, our goal is to design a product that can encourage children to clean their hands as well as turning the action into habit.

38

Problem solution Through deep observation, we find out that interesting action can attract children and motivate them to wash their hands. Therefore, we use the image of cute bamboo dragonfly to the design. The soap for washing hands is covered within a sponge. The sponge is connected with a rubber material with two colorful wings.

When children are washing their hands, they could see the pretty rainbow colors by rotating the sponge.

39

Design Concept When children are rubbing the rainbow dragon fly soap, the wings would spin and create beautiful rainbow. The interesting result drives children to wash their hands, and make such behavior become a long-standing habit. The bubbles created by rubbing uniformly distribute on the children's palms, which is really easy for them to clean up their hands and kill bad germs.

How to use It can hang on general faucet. Children can rob hands with yellow sponge. When the soap inside the sponge is used up, people just need to change a new yellow sponge.

41

Experiment We had user test for children in kindergarten. Through the trial, we found that the colorful product did appeal children to use it, encouraging them to nurture good habit.

42

44

Experiment Depending on different needs, the forms of yellow sponge have various types. Such variation improves the interesting feature. On the other hand, the yellow soap can attach to the wall with a sucker.

What was the challenge?

Luggage weight limit is everywhere around the world. As passengers often worry about over-weight, they find no way to know the weight in advance. Most people try to “feel� how heavy their luggage is by handing them by hand.

48

Design concept ”20kg weight limit” uses such habit of handing luggage by hand and adds in “Force Spring Balance” on handles of luggage to measure the weight. When users life the luggage, the weight of luggage transforms the shape and size of spring. Users are able to know easily if their luggage is overweight form the color on luggage’s handles.

The form of Tools Pen is a hexagon which improves its stability and reduces the opportunity of scrolling.

If luggage is over 20kg, the color on handles is red as a warning of over-weight. If not, the color would be green.

Metal and Acrylic side The shape of the ruler is in parallelogram. The shape of this ruler will also allow the consumer to pick up the ruler easily, a solution to the problem of picking up rulers.

In the composition aspect, the ruler will be composed of acrylic and metal. When using a pen to draw a straight line, the consumer could use the acrylic side of the ruler. When using the cutting utensil, the consumer could use the metal side of the ruler to ensure a straight cut.

62

Magnet Use The magnetic part of the ruler will also ensure that the consumer will never lose the ruler again because the ruler can stick onto any metal or magnetic surface.

Problem description When a fire accident happens at a building or a hotel, the scene of the fire falls into a mess and there is smoke everywhere. When rescuers arrive at the scene, they cannot realize the location of survivors waiting for rescue and the time of rescue is delayed thus.

Because of the smoke and the dark environment, survivors are too scared to escape from the hotel room, so they get besieged in the fire scene. It is a quite important problem for rescuers to realize the location of survivors.

74

Solution When a fire accident happens, survivors can press the emergency button on the “fire rescue window.� The whole window will begin radiating through the technique of photoconductive thin film so that rescuers can immediately tell the windows through which survivors are waiting for rescue or besieged beside the window no matter how many windows there are in the building. When the windows are concealed by the smoke, the light of laser will be radiated from the edges of the windows so that rescuers can notice the light through the dense smoke. This window will solve problem of invisibility caused by the smoke.

75

76

77

How to use Step1 : Press the emergency button.

Step2 : The radiation of the laser.

78

Technology Through this technology, survivors no longer wave their hands or other materials at the window. Their location will be found in an easier way and the rescue time of firefighters will be effectively shortened. This technology can be equipped to the windows without changing the arrangement of the building.

The power is stored through the solar energy battery on the window so that this technology can be used as soon as the fire happens.

Problem describe Many electronic appliances have been long a part of our lives for the convenience. The different placing of electronic appliances causes the mess of electric cords and makes them knot easily.

82

What was the challenge?

The mess of electric cords on the extension tends to result in cord bending which reduces the service lifetime and even causes fire. The rotating function can change the direction of cords according to the place of electronic appliances and make the electric cord fit the floor or wall more perfectly to lower the possibility of pulling and dragging and increase the safety.

83

ON/OFF Environmental protection is an important global issue nowadays.

Saving electricity and taking the plug out after use are actions readily protecting environment. The instinctive behaviors of switching it on/ off easily help control the plug switch. Also the module design makes it usable in the countries all over the world.

84

Rotate The power cable of traditional plug is often left suspended in the air or the extra space may be created due to the different placing of electronic appliances that make users kick the power cable easily and cause inconvenience. Rotate plug enables the direction of electronic cords change with the move of electronic appliances, making cords much tidier and the electric cord fit the floor more perfectly. The change on old version plug gives you a safer and more convenient life.

What was the challenge From any aspect of blood transfusion should be very carefully executed. Any error or neglect could cause death or unexpected infection.Statistic shows in every 800,000 transfusion, there is one case of death caused by mismatched blood transfusion. It is extremely important to receive correct blood bag before transfusion.

88

Design solution This design is to apply the antibody and antigen technology on the test strip and embedded in the blood bag package. When the blood was filled into the bag, the interior layer of test strip react with the blood to show its blood type such as A, B, O, or AB on its package.

The rapid response by test strip is convenient to display the correct blood groupings that enable the medical personnel make right and quick judgment. It can also be used as double confirmation to prevent mismatched blood transfusion.

Background In Taiwan, many young aboriginal people leave their home communities in rural areas seeking job opportunities in cities, posing a threat to the local development and their cultural survival.

112

Local Business Opportunities To create local business opportunities, the design concept proposes a series of distinctive stools with the locally available materials (draft wood & ramie) and traditional weaving craft. Through the combination of craft and industrial methods of production, we manage to develop a new product line in a sustainable and commercially viable way.

The metal frame is mass-produced

With the locally available materials and their ramie-fiber weaving skills, the local people are able to produce stools in a variety of ways and each one is unique.

The design aims to help local people start their own business and then attract more people to come back their homeland. The goal of community sustainability can be attained.

What is the “brick tea�?

Brick tea is a kind of Fermented tea originally from Yunnan and mostly sells to Tibet. This tea will be forged into brick shape for preservation therefore Tibet people also call It brick tea. The price of brick tea is usually expensive according to the age and quality.

The best known of the fermented tea class is pu-erh tea. The taste is silky, little bit sweet, herbal like and tee tree smell, with the effects of lowering fat and prevention of atherosclerosis.

Due to brick tea is quite hard for better preservation; it needs to be chiseled into pieces before boiling.

Why design Tea brick is expensive but usually packaged simple and crude. I would like to design a package with traditional idea but fits the true value of it for being a better gift while sending to others.

120

Why using “Typing foundry�

Associating with tea brick and type foundry as a conception, try to imagine the possibility of package. There is a long history of tea fermenting and type foundry, and are also traditional cultures. Brick tea fermented through time just like type foundry being molded; full of flavor of ages.

Type foundry and brick tea both decline gradually these days.

Although type foundry are not so perfect with computer printing, but some specialists are still willing to find the handmade energy and power. Although boiling a brick tea is too inconvenient for daily life nowadays, but there are still people who enjoy the procedure that makes slightly different of life, and makes those inferfect perfect.

Movable metal type

121

What is movable type Movable type is the system of printing and typography that uses movable components to reproduce the elements of a document, and first known movable-type system for printing was created in China.

Type foundry is metal movable type, and was an important tool for trespassing information until rise of computer and internet in 20th century.

About Gestalt Psychology? “Wholeness� mentioned in Gestalt psychology tells us that human brain sees objects in their entirety before perceiving their individual parts, suggesting the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. We suppose there’s a person hiding behind the cabinet when we see a foot beside it, while supposing a rabbit when we see a pair of rabbit ears. It is interesting that we can recognize a creature with only a few features.

146

Design Concept Designing the mug series with the aspect of Gestalt psychology,I transform the features of animals onto the mug, also the lid is designed as if there’re little animals playing hide and seek in the mug and accidentally expose their little ears outside.

Let us enjoy the tea while playing hide and seek with these animals!

Describe the problem The best use of an eraser would be the corners. But the corner of a new eraser would be dull after using, and become in convenient while erasing detail things. Therefore design an eraser with lots of corners to make using more easier.

162

Trying to think Try to think about different forms with more corners. Through different forms that make an eraser with more corners. Rubik's Cube is the form maintain the square form but with multiple corners to use.

163

Design concept Transform an eraser into Rubik's Cube, for it can turning in all directions to find the place suitable for use, with more convenient and more fun, and improve the relation between people.

Banban's Adventures 一款幫助閱讀障礙小朋友學習數學的app，透過數學的學習讓他們 足以應付日常生活所遇的數學問題

何謂閱讀障礙 閱讀障礙又稱失讀症，也是一種常見的學習障礙，有閱讀障礙的 人，智力與一般人並無不同，根據研究，大部分孩子的孩子一直到 三年級才被診斷出有失讀症，有些父母因為擔心孩子會被貼上了 「學障」的標籤，或不願讓孩子上資源班，因而沒有及早發現孩子 的問題，錯過了治療的關鍵期。事實上，在美國的研究發現，閱讀 障礙是可以透過特殊的方法加以訓練的，而且早期發現早期療育， 有高達九成的孩子最後能擁有正常的閱讀能力。

172

實際前往訪談了解

閱讀障礙小朋友遭遇的數學問題

聯絡與實際前往中山國小的特教班，除了多次深入訪談特教老師 之外，也與閱讀障礙的小朋友一起互動跟著他們一起上課了解。

1. 視知覺干擾，容易分心 2. 不會數數(eg. 1,2,3,4,5...etc) 3. 視覺空間能力有問題構字困難，數字左右顛倒 (eg. 13 寫成 31) 4. 分不清楚6個和第6的差別 5. 對測量單位沒概念 (eg. 10g與1kg覺得10g比較重) 6. 本身閱讀有困難，最難的是數學應用題 7. 需要具體物品的幫助了解抽象概念

閱讀障礙小朋友遭遇的語言問題 1. 以拆字拼圖教學認字 2. 象形文字的圖像化教學 3. 注音符號的拼音問題 (eg. 哇 發成 阿) 4. 透過故事幫助記憶

173

目前教學方式 1. 使用說故事的方式教學 2. 將數字視覺圖像化的教學方式(手指輔助計算) 3. 題目連續對三次才算真正學會 4. 除在黑板上寫題目外，老師以口語唸出來 5. 無論對錯都正面鼓勵 6. 循環漸進，簡單的會了再教更進階的問題 7. 使用不同顏色的粉筆標示題目重點，或切割題目(eg. “1年”6個月) 8. 說不出來用畫的

174

為何選擇數學來發展

針對族群

1. 相對於語言，數學這個領域的研究目前還很少 2. 閱讀障礙的朋友同時擁有很大數學問題 3. 透過數學的學習讓閱讀障礙患者可以解決日常生活的數學問題

小一至小二閱讀障礙患者，以下為教學內容: 1. 直立式加法 2. 計算日期與日期間的天數 3. 簡單的乘法 4. 單位的換算(eg. 1年 = ___月?)

情境故事法

現有軟體問題

透過情境故事法，思考閱讀障礙的小朋友一天所經歷的事 情，並抓出重點找出核心問題。

1. 難易度差距大，不是太難就是太簡單 2. 不太著重於計算過程，閱讀障礙患者不易使用 3. 主要給學過數學的小朋友所使用，而非正在學數學的小朋友

175

核心問題 1. 沒辦法同時記憶多個步驟 2. 無法了解數字背後的意思 3. 較容易分心 4. 需要具體物品幫助了解抽象概念

設計重點 1. 由簡入深 2. 將算式步驟拆解 3. 數字圖像化 4. 搭配語音教學隨時提示 5. 數字與圖像的連結

核心價值 1. 藉由遊戲的方式無痛學習 2. 透過好玩有趣的互動反覆練習 3. 培養足夠應付日常生活數學問題的能力

主角小樹鼠斑斑

烏龜老師

腳色設定 以故事遊戲的方式呈現，透過一隻住在樹洞裡的樹鼠斑斑來當故事 的主角，一一解開許多數學的謎題，而透過旁邊的烏龜老師來指導 該如何進行數學題目，在每個不同關卡的開始，烏龜老師會帶領做 提一次，當使用者久久沒有進行動作時烏龜老師也會進行提示。

數字呈現 將抽象的數字具體化，把數字分成千位數的國王，百位數的皇后， 十位數的衛兵，個位數的小士兵，透過物體本身讓閱讀障礙的小朋 友可以靠視覺感受出大小差異，也能藉由比較具象的方式，國王皇 后衛兵士兵以故事或職位的方式來幫助閱讀障礙小朋友了解數字的 感覺。

故事背景 原來大樹裡面是另一個世界---菇菇王國。這時洞口突然封起來 了，在不知該如何出去的情況下，走著走著遇見了一位烏龜博 士，烏龜博士說要出去的方式只有一種，菇菇王國正在被惡魔控 制著，必須解救完所有菇菇慢慢往上爬，解除詛咒才能回到現實 的世界。於是斑斑在烏龜博士的引導之下，開始菇姑王國的冒險 旅程。

概念了解題

計算題

生活應用題

題型設定 由簡入深循序漸進的關卡模式，概念了解題著重於了解加減乘除 含意，計算題著重於算式的步驟與計算，最後的生活應用題則將 生活所遇問題轉換成算式形式。

178

草模演練測試 透過簡單的草模製作，不斷嘗試操作與修改整體使用的流暢性， 找出問題並加以修正演練，討論出最順暢的使用姓，並透過拍攝 演練的手法加以記錄

179

在關卡設計上由淺至深，數字越高困難度也越高，以特教老師所 說同樣的題目要對三次才算答對，也運用在此關卡設計上，需要 答對三次才能進行到下一關。

概念了解題

透過概念了解題，以圖像教學的方式讓閱讀障礙的小朋友能容易 的了解加減乘除所代表的意思。

當不知該如何進行時可按下烏龜博士頭上紅色的喇叭圖示，烏龜 博士會給予提示，在每個關卡的最前端，會自動示範一次該如何 操作，讓閱讀障礙小朋友可以理解。左邊的三顆星為代表生命的 星星，答案確定後按下綠色的勾勾鍵，答對則進入下個關卡答錯 則會扣一顆星星生命。

按下Menu進入黑色畫面可以選擇重新再玩，回到首頁以及設 定。

180

由於閱讀障礙小朋友多擁有容易分心的問題，所以當畫面停滯5 秒不動時，烏龜博士的小手就會出現提醒現在應該需進行的項 目。

左右兩邊都有可以拖曳至樹幹上的菇菇，透過顏色所右兩邊的方 向，來區別加數與被加數。

透過拖曳的方式就可以很容易的將菇菇放置在樹幹上。

當菇菇放置上去發現放錯了需要刪掉，只需要將手指由左上至右 下一畫即可將一隻菇菇刪去，確定完成後按下方勾勾鍵，回答正 確即到下一關，錯誤則扣一顆生命星星。

181

當闖關成功後進入此畫面可以選擇進入下一關或重新再玩此關卡 一次。

計算題 在計算題除了學習算式的構成，由於閱讀障礙朋友無法同時間處 理多項事情，也將步驟拆成多個部分，一次處理一個部分，並加 強算式中進位的概念。

計算題開始畫面，一樣會先由烏龜博士解釋操作一次，再經由步 驟一步一步進行。

使用拖曳的方式將不同位數的香菇拖曳至答案框，先填入被加數 數字再填入加數，假設被加數為1055則拖曳一個千位數菇菇、 五個十位數菇菇、五個個位數菇菇進答案欄。

182

拖曳一個菇菇，再答案欄也顯示一。

當答案填寫完畢後按下確定鍵答對則跳入一下個步驟。

被加數填寫完填寫加數，填寫正確算式完成後按下確定鍵則開始 進入計算。

透過黑色的ok蹦，將步驟拆開一次處理一個算式，並透過滑軌的 方式滑到正確的答案上。

183

滑到的答案多少，則會掉入相同數量的香菇，香菇掉下來後會由 彩色轉換為黑白區分，按下確定鍵進入下個步驟。

透過進位答案框加強閱讀障礙朋友進位的概念，搖動的進位答案 框也提醒閱讀障礙朋友別忘了要進位。

方式一樣以拖曳方式拖曳至進位框內。

接下來一樣按照前面的方式透過滑軌滑到正確的答案。

184

將答案填寫完成後按下最後的確定鍵，答對則進入下個關卡答錯 則扣一顆生命星星。

答對一樣進入到過關的畫面，可以選擇再玩一次或進入到下個關 卡。

生活應用題 將生活所會遇到的應用題，學習抓出關鍵字並轉換成算式，並一 個步驟一個步驟進行。

將應用題的文字拆解開來。

185

抓出重要句子一步一步進行，並將正在提到的數字標註起來，透 過右邊的數字鍵填入適當的數字。

把文字與加減乘除符號去做連結。

抓出關鍵字，並把重要的數字標註起來。

填寫正確答案後即可拉出算式條開始進入計算。

186

討論與修正 在執行的過程中不斷與特教老師討論來回修正，了解其教學上的 需求，在修正後也給閱讀障礙小朋友去做測試，不僅觀察閱讀障 礙小朋友在操作上使用的流暢性，也能透過他們的長期測試，看 到他們持續進步的過程。 目前這款app進行進度至加法的概念了 解題與計算題，應用題為正在開發中。往後也會慢慢將減乘除的 部分完成。
