UCF Employment Solutions the Hiring of Unworthy & Incompetent Employees Discussion

You’ve learned about a problem, gained empathy for those who experience the problem, and seen frustrations that arise from using alternative solutions. NOW IT’S TIME FOR YOU TO OFFER SOMETHING BETTER!

This assignment asks you to describe your solution. Rather than constrain your creativity with a template that requires you to answer OUR questions, we ask you to provide a brief description of your solution accompanied by a “pre-totype” (low fidelity prototype) drawing of your product or service offering.

Your written description should explain your solution’s features and the expected benefits it will provide (relative to currently available, frustrating solutions). Your illustration should be of your “object” if it is a product, or people interacting if it is a service (stick figures and speech bubbles are preferred). You will share these illustrations in class (either by holding them up to your camera or via screen sharing), so be sure that they are clear enough for others to see and serve as effective visual aids while you describe your solution to others.

Instructions

1. Write a description of your solution in a NEW Word file (we’re not providing a template for this assignment!) that includes an overview as well as a listing of features (attributes of the solution) and benefits (pain relievers and gain creators experienced by others). This MUST be between 100-150 words. You may include bullet lists of features and benefits (complete sentences are not necessary).
2. Illustrate your solution any way you think will be effective when you describe it to others. This should fill an entire page.
3. Paste an image of your illustration at the end of your Word document so it is a new page after your description.
4. Save your Word file using the naming convention firstnamelastname–Step 8.docx.
5. Upload your file to this assignment.
