INTRODUCTION / During the experience of self-recognition, teenagers need to face different kinds of problems, and the influence from the peers is the most affective factor of this period. The self-identity can directly affect teens’ emotion and self development, it also decided the way of growth of the young people.

In this project, I will like to conduct in a way of playing game, I will give a platform to the teens to have interaction at the aim of understand each other to dismiss the prejudice.

At the end, I determined to deal with the labelling problem of teenagers. The labelling problem being more serious in the decade as the amount of phrases to describe of these kind of people increases. However, most of the teenagers have not aware the seriousness of the problem will affect the self-identify of the counterparts.

To eliminate the labelling problem of younger it is a chance to rise the selfidentity of them. The project will be a game for teenagers who suffered or not in the labelling problem.

PROJECT STATEMENT / To produce a game to teenagers who attend to or affected by the labelling problem to rediscover themselves.

PROJECT OBJECTIVES / 1) Not to position others by using a fixed character 2) To eliminate the prejudice of the labelled people from the taggers 3) Build up the self-identity of the suffered people 4) Clarify the terms of the labels 5) Lead teenagers know that what kind of people they are

PROJECT SCOPE / PROJECT PROPOSAL

Teenagers who experienced labelling problem?

They care about the recognition of peers, what is the new trend The design may apply in school or online market

DESIGN GOALS / #The message has to be comprehensible by particular target audience. #The experience has to reflect the psychological needs of users. #The process of playing the game should involve the own experience of players. #The service has to be affordable for the target buyers. #The player can be attracted by the process of game. #The game need to be easy to understand and play.

SELF-REFLECTION

During conducting the research, I found out the importance of idea development, I need to do a lot of researches to understand the problem and target group. After the studying of the researches, I realise that self-identity is very important to the self development of teenagers, they will know their own identity while seeking self-concept. I think that this is the major period of build up oneself, the labellng problem will affect how they valued themselves and affect their self-esteem.

After the research, I think I need more critical thinking to all the things, give more opinions and think deeper. I personally think that I have done quite well in secondary research, I found the useful elements from the references. However, I think I need to do a better marketing research and find out what issue I can take from the other offerings.
