Media Design and Visual Implementation of a Digital Health Literacy Intervention Script for Children Suffering From Asthma
Core assignment of this thesis is the media design and visual implementation of a script in form of multiple video snippets (approx. 12 videos with a length of 1-3 min)
Keywords: Media design, media implementation, children, video clips, video snippets, video, asthma, health literacy intervention
The CSS Lab, a joint initiative of the Institute of Technology Management (ITEM-HSG), the Department of Management, Technology, and Economics (ETH D-MTEC) and the CSS Insurance strives to specify, develop and evaluate consumer-centric applications that lead to health and well-being. Key aspects investigated in this context are the design and implementation of digital health interventions thereby combining knowledge from various scientific disciplines such as information systems, medicine and psychology. Prof. Elgar Fleisch chairs the CSS Health Lab as the scientific head. The CSS Lab research group offers a thesis on bachelor/master level with the following topic:
**Media Design and Visual Implementation of a Digital Health Literacy Intervention Script for Children Suffering From Asthma**
We are currently working on a digital health intervention for children (10 – 13 years) suffering from asthma. In this intervention, children will regularly receive short animated videos on their smartphone. The content of these video snippets revolves around topics highly relevant to children affected by asthma (e.g. what can I do in case of an asthma attack?). The objective of this intervention is to provide information to children about their disease and thus to support the development of asthma self-management skills. _Core assignment of this thesis is the medial design and visual implementation of a script in form of multiple video snippets (approx. 12 videos with a length of 1-3 min)._ Our script was developed in cooperation with patient organizations, medical experts and media pedagogues. The videos produced in this thesis will be embedded in a study with children suffering from asthma, which is scheduled later this year.
For the application, you should meet the following requirements:
- Enrolled in the last third of bachelor/master studies, preferably in a study program related to media design
- Experience in digital media design and visual implementation, preferably in the context of animated videos
- High proficiency in relevant media design software (e.g. Adobe Creative Suite)
- Interest (and preferably first experiences) in the design of child-oriented video clips
- Independent working style, self-confident appearance and high communication skills
- Interest in mobile technology (e.g. smartphones & wearables) and digital medicine
- High proficiency in German (preferably native speakers)
If you are fascinated by the described task and would like to be part of a highly motivated, young team, then please send your application in electronic form to the contact specified below.
