Final Report

Problem Brief

This project aims to understand better juvenile mental healthcare, the issue of procrastination among young students, and the relationship between mental health and procrastination. Making mental health care systems more easily accessible to children is the primary focus of this initiative. It will try to connect ingrained behavioral tendencies like procrastination and an underlying mental health problem to find practical solutions to both of these problems.

So how do we go about this?

Designing for children and adolescents

Why is a separate methodology required?

Teens are becoming more successful at navigating websites and application over the years. But their performance against adults when compared doesn’t fare well.

Teens perform worse than adults for three reasons:
Insufficient reading skills
Less sophisticated research strategies
Dramatically lower levels of patience

only wood

All our woods are sustainably deforested and
compensated through replanting projects.
Walnut’s deep brown and dark coloring makes it a premier choice. It’s a fine-grained wood that can be stained easily and looks great when polished. Though it’s one of the more expensive hardwoods, its beautiful appearance makes it worth.
Pine is generally an indoor wood unless it’s been treated for outdoor use. Pine can be stained, painted or finished. There are many different types of wood for furniture, and pine is an excellent choice.
Redwood is fairly soft and has a reddish tint. It comes from redwood trees, which have a straight grain. The wood is easy to cut and form to the shape and length you require.
Mahogany has a tint ranging from reddish-brown to deep-red. It’s fairly soft compared to other softwoods. The wood has a straight grain and a medium texture.
Birch is one of the harder types of hardwood, with yellow and white varieties. White birch has a lighter color and looks similar to maple. Yellow birch has a pale yellow appearance, with a reddish-brown tint in the heartwood.
