Janet Finch-Saunders AM: Yes but how will any gaps in your data be addressed ?
Dr Frank Atherton: Well one of the questions that are often asked is : could we measure more on a longitudinal basis ? By that I mean in England for example children are measured at school entry and then again at year 11—at age 11 or 12 that kind of age group And so you do have a longitudinal view over time of what is happening to children I think that would be helpful to us in Wales and it is one of the questions in the consultation about whether we should expand that Obviously that would have significant resource implications not just for the funding but also for schools and for the system to deliver it But it is something that maybe would help us in terms of better understanding and better evaluation—the point that was made earlier
Nathan Cook: And the other data we do have is the millennium cohort study which has been released for 14 and 15yearolds That is going to be— We are starting to think about how we can utilise some of that data looking at that longitudinal picture around children as well which will be really helpful
Janet Finch-Saunders AM: Thank you You have answered my next question Thank you | Dr Frank Atherton put out one “often asked” question and attached some importance to having a longitudinal view over time of what's happening to Children, which meant children were measured at school entry and then again at age 11 or 12. That would have significant resource implications, not just for the funding, but also for schools and for the system to deliver it. And also, according to Dr Frank Atherton, the longitudinal data would be helpful in strategy evaluation. |

Marketing: Well findings Ease of use is important but innovation is more important and a fancy look and feel is even more important And some fashion watchers have found out that the young target group likes fruit and vegetables in their clothes shoes and furniture and that they want spongy material Probably watch too much Sponge Bob the older group still prefers dark colours Simple shapes m material But we since we are concentrating on the younger group
Project Manager: w wait a sec wait a se could you go to the previous slide ? because I am taking minutes were the important themes enclose The feel of to be spongy
Industrial Designer: so do you think when fruit and vegetables are important for clothing and shoes that they are in remote controls also ?
Marketing: Well one example given was this so I assume they just want something colourful Not specifically an apple as a remote control or something
User Interface: But they like dark colours you said in the p
Marketing: No the younger group likes more colourful objects
User Interface: Well then I suggest that the corporate colours are grey and yellow
Industrial Designer: But can you can you go back to that slide ? The no no no Yes and the feel of the material has to be spongy Has it something to do with that natural feeling also do you think ?
Marketing: But personally I would not like a sponge as a remote control But Maybe soft material or something But not a real sponge
Project Manager: so so it might not be t it it should not be too hard It it maybe it rubber or or
Marketing: and like the older group likes familiar materials
User Interface: Or we could make oh
Marketing: but that does not mean we should use wood So Well this this is an example of what they would like But since we are conten concentrating on the younger group I think we should use soft materials and make it colourful or like cell phones exch exchangeable covers So we could provide both for the young and the old what they like
Project Manager: You could make a few v very colourful ones and a very traditional co cover
User Interface: o o I am thinking about the Bananarama telephone telephone from Siemens The yellow rubber telephone It is the it is the rubber cover
Project Manager: it is it is i
User Interface: It looks likes a banana We have the fruit we have the colours We have the simple design
Project Manager: Do you know the phone ?
Industrial Designer: I do not know the phone
Project Manager: It is the Siemens C twenty five
Industrial Designer: but I can imagine it
Project Manager: I believe it is it is the one the Postbank gave away
User Interface: And the b the light blue and it is also in yellow
Industrial Designer: Now I kn oh I know I know Yes I I have seen it I have seen it
Project Manager: You kn you know Ruud as well ? About th Do you have thit that was
Marketing: Kay that is about it
Project Manager: so the the m important findings are innovation is more important than ease of use for the our target group And colouring is important and and soft materials
Industrial Designer: So So ease of use is important but technology is twice as important And what was even more important ?
Marketing: the fancy look and feel
Industrial Designer: So that is the most important thing for our customers
Project Manager: could you do your presentation ?
User Interface: Mmhmm Well I do not ha really have much to add because most of things we already said in the previous discussion
Project Manager: well it is good to to sum up the things we already thought about
User Interface: the previous ideas were voice recognition and the round button for the p channel programming and volume Well a few interface I I found on the internet are are these These are both with with voice recognition but they are very advanced and very hightech and just well a weird shape So I suggest I could not I had a small mockup sign on the on paper But it did not work My pen did not load the information So I made a really simple f a shape on in PowerPoint But we could make a round an oval remote control yellow
Industrial Designer: Mmhmm But it is it is kind of it is kind of o organic so that is very good
Project Manager: And what I am thinking about maybe we should make very light but a grip I mean this is how you hold a remote control it should not be too glatt too slippery
User Interface: But if you have something like the Siemens phone it is rubber
Industrial Designer: You have to grab it
User Interface: So it is easy in your hand indeed
Industrial Designer: Yes There are there are also remote controls who have a little shape underneath where you can put your fingers in so you can get a really good grip on it So you you do not have to attain much pressure to it It is it is a lot easier But I will I will go into that deeper in my presentation
User Interface: Oh and to add on Ruuds information in this interface we can have hightech with the voice recognition and well the the fancy colours and and so on and still have the ease of use because we have an easy interface And all the other remote controls are hightech in buttons and and so on
Project Manager: Way too much I think for our goal
User Interface: So if you have the voice recognition you can you can programme like thirty thirty c controls on it
Project Manager: b but I think we will
Industrial Designer: but I will I will go into that because there are are some possibilities and some impossibilities I had a talk with our manufacturing division and we had a talk about all the different components who are in this design these are the things we have looked at And of course I used the web to find my information About the casing we have three different casing possibilities We have the uncurved or flat case that is the most common remote con control form we are used to is just a it ju it is just a box I am sorry I I do not have any pictures of of this thing We have a curved one It is curved in two dimensions You have to imagine it is a bit like a wave form So it is a little more advanced in its in its shape and we have an even more advanced shape which is curved in three dimension I c I think you can compare it a little bit with the big grey image you had in your presentation The the big remote control something like that | Marketing revealed that the younger target group preferred colourful objects and soft material. Project Manager agreed and added that the remote control should be light and not too slippery. Then Industrial Designer introduced three casing possibilities: uncurved, single-curved and double-curved. Considering that uncurved design could be too dull and double-curved design would make it difficult to use scroll-wheels, the team chose the single-curved design. |

Project Manager: Interface type We have pushbutton scrollwheel interface integrated scrollwheel pushbutton and an LCD display So we actually have the LCD display and then is it the integrated or is it
User Interface: I would say the integrated
Project Manager: Kay Button supplement ? Special colour ? special form ? Special material
Industrial Designer: We could of course make the buttons wood
Marketing: It would look really lovely
Project Manager: They cost us all the same Well we only have one button so really we should not be charged we should not be charged anything for the the button supplements
User Interface: No that is getting a bit tiny
Project Manager: We are going to leave that one blank because we run on a LCD and scroll So our total is fifteen point five Which I believe is
Industrial Designer: It is hard to believe So we will go for the hand dynamo huh ?
Project Manager: So the only thing better than a bananashaped remote is one that you shake
User Interface: If it w What if we completely took out the the one single button we have got on And just had a scroll wheel interface And the LCD display I suppose the LCD C displays the one that is pushing it up a bit though
Project Manager: Well because we have to have both right ?
Industrial Designer: I mean let us let us face it it also depends on the software on the on the television You can have the the information that this thing transmits be being displayed on the on the screen So s let us take away the
User Interface: you could maybe take out the LCD dis display even if it if it comes up on the computer itsel on the TV itself
Project Manager: So we may not need the LCD display ?
Industrial Designer: Right We may not need it There you go
Project Manager: So we just remove our
User Interface: Make it a bigger dial Easier to use Even easier to use then
Project Manager: Besides look at what the LCD does to our lovely remote Back to the design room boys
Industrial Designer: So we can just take away a heck of a lot of the there you go central ?
Marketing: What is the blue part ?
User Interface: we ran out of yellow
Marketing: Oh that is the batteries Looks more like a banana
User Interface: For all those fruit lovers out there | Project Manager first introduced the budget and broke it down to parts like batteries, electronics, case material supplements, interface type and then button supplements. The team agreed that the push button, integrated scroll-wheel and the LCD display cost a lot but case materials were all the same. In this case, the team decided to discard the LCD since the information it could transmit could also be simply displayed on the screen. As for the recognition feature, the team decided to make it a big deal to be alarming. And lastly, the product would be pure yellow instead of a blue button. |

Hugh: Hi there. Rob and Juan, how did your panels go?

Juan: Ha ha ha thanks Clarice. Yeah, I think it went ok, what would you say Rob?
Rob: I can't remember anything. Panel blackout! ⚫
Hugh: Any annoying questions from the audience?
Rob: ⚫
Hugh: lol
Clarice: Well, I don't know what the guys think but I personally think the guy who chaired Rob's panel was a little bit of a dickhead, wasn't he?
Rob: 🔴 Yeah, a total dick. He did a nice round-up at the end in which he scoffed at our papers and basically said we were a bunch of silly losers. After which he asked us to provide a definition of politics, just to make sure we even understood what it was.
Clarice: @Hugh for your information, Rob is exaggerating less than usual
Hugh: Fuck, sounds insane
Juan: It was. But I actually had a very good time. Rob was the last one to answer the "question" and he gave a truly moving performance -of scorn and intellectual superiority 💖
Hugh: Ha ha ha how so
Clarice: Well, I don't wish to interrupt but I think it's not without importance that Rob actually began his answer by laughing the chair in his face
Juan: Sounds like a nice prelude 🎼
Rob: Indeed, that bit I really forgot lol. Anyway, I told him that as he has asked such a big question I was going to answer a few more. So I defined not only politics but also History, Art and Literature 😂😂😂😂
Clarice: And the best thing was that the guy actually seemed to enjoy the answer, even though it was apparent that Rob was mocking him from beginning to end. So weird...
Rob: I agree with Clarice, he looked me in the eye all the while, nodding with approval
Juan: Sounds really bizarre... So Rob, what's History? What's Literature? What's Art?
Rob: Oh fuck off lol
Clarice: You can purchase advance tickets for Rob for 10 EUR; tickets at the entrance cost 12 EUR
Rob: 😂😂😂
Juan: Rob sure deserves a glass of wine tonight
Rob: We all do. I'll be looking out for you after the keynote address
Clarice: Sure, let's grab a drink after
Hugh: Yes please 👌
Rob: See you guys later then
Clarice: Byee | Rob and Juan did panel that went great. Clarise tells Hugh the guy who chaired Rob's panel was a dick and asked him diminishing questions. Rob answered brilliantly mocking the guy. Rob, Juan, Hugh and Clarice are going to the drink later. |

Marketing: Neither was I Well it is a trend in fashion in clothing and fabrics
Project Manager: but you are not going to wear your remote control
User Interface: So so let me get this right alright anyway here we go Conceptual User Interface Trying we are going to try to talk about what kind of how people are actually going to be using this iPodish remote control based on fruit vegetable design And basically so this is a touched ba a touchbased graphical interface system so people are going to be looking at this little screen kind of I mean I assume are we still on the screen idea ?
Project Manager: Oh we s had not discussed it last time
User Interface: Because if we are going to have to ha if we have this it just seems like in order to have someone going around and using the the wheel
Project Manager: You need a screen for it ?
User Interface: you it seems like you would need a screen
Industrial Designer: You need a screen with music because you are looking for a specific song like you know that band or whatever With TV channels it is you know one two three So
User Interface: But like if you think about it but if so is it just So b you you are going to have to switch to like DVD and like other things like that are not you ?
Project Manager: We are we are actually not having DVD that was one of th I I was I I meant to update you on that
Marketing: But the screen can come up on the telly the she said
User Interface: So anyway if well we just we need to so if we are not going to have a screen I think I was thinking So basically it is just going to be a wheel then ? And you are just going to I mean I think you are going to have to have some kind of a right
Marketing: on the you can have it on the telly though
User Interface: like you are going to have to be able to switch to like a mode where you can we are not choosing that I guess But like choose channel control like if you wa Because people are not going to be able to have like you know channels one two three four five six seven eight nine So that people seems to be well
Project Manager: You have I know what you are saying you have to
User Interface: You know But you are going to have to scroll to get channels So I guess that is wh why I was thinking you may need to have some kind of a screen because So that people can go arou go back and forth and choose if or or then again if you just I guess I c I can see like some kind of a thing where like you sort of have like the number come up on the TV like what channel you are on You can just scroll and you can just get to like five or like twelve or
Project Manager: But but imagine someone with s
Industrial Designer: My flatmates actually had one with a wheel and it it did show up on the TV
Project Manager: But i what if you have satellite and you have like two hundred channels Then to get to channel one eighty nine you have to
User Interface: Because you will have to like
Industrial Designer: They have to r wheel really fast
User Interface: but you can quickly s you can
Industrial Designer: But I think the wheel goes through like a hundred channels
User Interface: if you do it w so it would have to be you I mean so you basically just kind of need to figure out like what kind of you know range we need to have on the wheel and So you are either you are you know th you are either doing this motion to like control the channels or like once once you stop that you know you can like tap for different whatchamacallits different you know functions like volume or like you can tap just to get to different channels Like if you just wanted to go to like from five to six you could tap or someth And then there is also the concern about you know how do you get to the menu if you want to change the brightness of your television or if you want to you know switch around I do not know like these different modes like turn on the timer or like something something like that
Project Manager: I mean with that many options you would I would think that the screen would be better because you could have that menu option sort of
User Interface: I would think so too like So I mean and it seems it w it does seem a little silly to have this screen if you hardly are ever using it you know because but then again it would it does make kind of if the screens sort of just like an option that like is just there and you are not really using it that is kind of
Industrial Designer: It is more expensive according to the design people
User Interface: that is the only thing though
Industrial Designer: You have to get a an advanced chip if you want to have a screen in which is more expensive than the regular chip which is more expensive than the minimal
User Interface: So then basically it has to have some way to get to get to a mode on the television where you are doing You can get to you know you can Like maybe it will be that central button that like then you hit that and then you can it brings up like the menu on the TV and you can just scroll around like to do the timer to do the
Project Manager: So the TV is the screen that So it would have all these different options of changing
User Interface: But the remote itself is not really cluttered up
Marketing: Look it even has settings you can just take theirs and just
User Interface: well we do not want the screen I guess but because that just it does seem like it that would be like incredibly expensive but I do not know and then so it just i am really all you need is like this little wheel then and you can control everything | User Interface assumed they were going to have a screen at first, since User Interface thought a screen was necessary for people to visualize things such as a specific song when looking for one. However, since adding a screen cost more money, and TV could be used as the screen, they finally decided that screen was not necessary. |

Jacob: Ok well I think the first one is a no for sure.
Jacob: I don't like the color, I don't think it would suit you.
Abigail: Alright, that one wasn't my favorite anyway.
Abigail: What do you think of the last one?
Jacob: I mean, it's ok. Nothing special 😅
Abigail: Really?! Well. I think it's nice.
Jacob: Haa, so you obviously like that one the best. I don't know why you are asking other people for opinions then.
Abigail: Ah!! You're the worst.
Abigail: hahah but I think you're right.
Abigail: Alright, thanks for the help
Jacob: Yeah, no problem 😅 | Abigail needs Jacob's opinion on which haircut she should get. Abigail will go for the last one. |

king: The queen would never let me put her washtub in clear view of my chamber door otherwise! We must call in extra workers. Better to ask forgiveness, eh?
architect: Aye, sire. The problem remains... with the Black Death waging war upon the common folk, perhaps requiring their services to construct a lavish bath would cause poor favor... I shall make the arrangements, of course. But still. There has been talk of unrest in the streets, m'Lord. I fear...
king: Speak up, lad. What do you fear?
architect: I fear... Rebellion, sire....
king: These peasant demands baffle me. I know not what to do. What would you do?
architect: Please have mercy upon me sire, but... I believe we should refrain from the building of this bath and invest instead in mass graves...
king: Very well. If you think it would help.
architect: I will design these graves, of course. Perhaps this will prevent a revolt among the peasantry.

Karol: Hello dear ladies!
Karol: What do you think I should buy to my 4 year old niece?
Karol: You know, Christmas time is coming and I really have no idea what would be a good present...
Sylwia: Oooh, how sweet!
Sylwia: It won't be a very innovative idea but did how about some jigsaw puzzle?
Karol: I'm not sure if a 4 year old child can do the puzzles... Isn't that too difficult for such a little creature?
Sylwia: Hahahaha you're being silly!
Sylwia: There're different levels of difficulty, I think you could find some puzzles for even younger 'creatures' :)
Monika: True! Last year I bought jigsaw puzzles for my 3 year old nephew.
Monika: Those were big pieces and the child was doing pretty well with matching them!
Sylwia: You see, Karol? If there was something like that for a 3 year old, you don't have to worry.
Karol: I see...
Monika: Or maybe...
Monika: How much are you planning to spend on this present?
Karol: Like 30 bucks or so
Monika: Because I've got another idea!
Monika: Listen, at the age of 4 children actually start to learn the alphabet in preschool.
Monika: And last time I've been searching for something on eBay, I've come across an auction offering whiteboard with marker pens and plastic letters with magnet.
Monika: The whiteboard's dimensions were 90 cm and 60 cm, if I remember well. Total cost 25 bucks, so it'd fit your budget! :)
Monika: What do you think?
Karol: Wow, the idea is perfect!
Karol: And I could hang the whiteboard on the wall, so it wouldn't require any space on the floor.
Sylwia: I like the idea too. There's always this annoying problem with the kids writing on the wall...
Sylwia: So having that thing on the wall they could be doing it without consequence!
Karol: Monika, you're a genious!
Karol: I'm super happy I've asked you guys, thanks!!
Monika: That's nothing, I feel fantastic every time I can help :)) | Karol is looking for recommendations for a Christmas present for his 4-year-old niece. Sylwia suggests a jigsaw puzzle. Monika suggests a whiteboard, marker pens and letter magnets to help the niece learn the alphabet. Karol likes the idea a lot. |
villager: Why absolutely not! I'm telling you, the body of a horse and head of a man. I saw it with my own eyes, you can ask Crazy Rick too!
cooker: I just can't imagine that. I suppose I'll come with you, I'd like to have a look myself.
villager: First, first, I want a sample of the wedding cake for the princess. Here, it's everything I have. Just one bite.
cooker: I'll be taking that. Just be quick about it and don't make a mess, will ya?
villager: Don't mind if I do, what flavor is it?
cooker: A lavender and vanilla. Her Highness insisted I combine the flavors. Came out pretty good if I must say so myself.
villager: I would add more goat's milk next time, my lord this is hard to swallow!
cooker: Oh, bite your tongue, it's not that bad! Ha..Ha
