Submission Required
Using your launch findings, produce the core user-research artifacts: interview notes from at least three interviews, observation field notes from daycare observations, an empathy map, and a journey map. In your small group, draft initial versions, test them with a peer audience, and iterate based on feedback to improve clarity and usefulness; organize final outputs for sharing in the next phase.

Student-facing instructions
You will work in groups to synthesize interview and observation data into empathy artifacts and maps. Begin by organizing your notes and discussing findings with peers. Draft initial empathy maps and use peer feedback to refine them. Then, develop journey maps that reveal the pathways of child development challenges. Be sure to reflect on your process, noting key insights and areas for future application.
