The Capstone Project (I) requires students to write a proposal by identifying problem of an organisational administration or a programme in the real world by researching user experiences, and designing an alternative “way of doing” to improve user experience. To achieve the above, students need to explore educational and non-profit organizations as distinct entities, and distinguish contexts specific to the administration and management of the organizations in the process of implementing administrational procedures or a programme. In short, the Capstone Project (I) is a UXD project designed to play a role in executive management/programme development and management by: a) investigate the users’ experience of an existing practice within an organisational context b) identify area of improvement and modify the project/administration (or related environment) design in order to offer better experience for users c) develop a time-line for project implementation and execute the modified plan to improve users’ experiences d) document the result, evaluate the degree of improvement in terms of efficiency, effectiveness, enjoyment, ethics and social values etc Various forms of partnership in the project such as working together with the internship agency, collaborating with local or international educational or non-profit organization are encouraged whenever feasible.
