Having never conducted in depth research into their teachers, it was a perfect place to distill a research process that allows the company to understand and empathize with it's teachers. There was little clarity on what teachers experience while teaching a bootcamp, what their time revising class content is like any goals or pain points they had and why we're apprechensive about returning to teach.
Our objectives included a better understanding of how teachers prepared themselves to teach a class, unvcover gaps in communication, discover potential new opportunities and validate/disprove any assumptions and hypotheses. These assumptions, biases and hypotheses were uncovered during initial brainstorming sessions.
I have had the privilege of collaborating with Element3 in a groundbreaking partnership with the Haemophilia and Thrombosis Centre at the esteemed Royal Free Hospital in London. Our mission was to conceptualize, design, and develop a cutting-edge Haemophilia Outcome Management System (HOMS).
