Student project
Please understand who I am!
Background
Children have a hard time expressing their feelings, and it becomes even more difficult if they suffer from an invisible disability such as attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).
Please understand who I am!
Two to three per cent of Danish school children have ADHD, which may mean that the child has difficulty concentrating for longer periods at a time. In this project, the designer explores ways to help adults understand what it is like to have ADHD from a child's perspective. The project uses animation as a tool to give parents, relatives, teachers and the child herself a better understanding of her disability.
