Wellbeing Technology, Design, and Leadership

Wellbeing technologies come with tremendous potential and innate challenges. At their best these technologies can help humans heal, grow, and expand their minds. When used out of integrity, privacy can be breached, anxiety and hypervigilance increased, and humans reduced to data. The technology we build is a reflection of our personal capacity; we must develop as people while we design. This class includes sector briefings, mini design sprints, guest speakers and awareness-building activities, all with the intention for students to develop self-awareness, strengthen emerging leadership, and imagine transformative technology worth building.
