Inspiration?

As noted previously, your intervention can be of any form (high- or low-tech), so long as it meets the key features stipulated in the coursework briefing. It may be, therefore, that you are not sure where to start in this regard. In the sub-pages to this section, I will list a range of established interventions and/or tools that may provide you with ideas for developing your own. Please note:

  • Most of the sources I will list will not fulfil all the required criteria for the module assignment. Some, for example, are clearly play- or game-based, but do not make use of natural settings, media or activities.
  • If a listed intervention does fulfill all the criteria for the assignment, and you decide to base your own website around this, it is vital that you demonstrate your own creativity and innovative abilities, by adapting it to maximise its impact for your chosen target-group and specific aims/objectives.

As a starting point, before looking through the sub-pages, and as I build them up, you may find the following resources to be valuable:
