Module 2: Digital Development At the end of this module, you are expected to: 1 2. Define the principles of Digital Development Identify the core tenets of each principle There are 9 Principles of Digital Development 1. First is, Design with the User. >» vvyY 2. The second Principle is, Understand the Exi: ia This is different from designing for the user. Designing With The User can only be attained through conversation, observation, and co-creation with the people, client, or target market who will be using the ‘eventual digital product or tools. The Core tenets of this first principle Design with the User are as follows: It should Incorporate multiple user types and stakeholders in each phase of the project lifecycle to direct feature needs and revise the design. It should have clear objectives and open toa process of repetition It should improve users’ current processes And aside from considering the needs of the underserved it should always be open to people opting out of the design process ‘ing Ecosystem. The Ecosystem is the political, economic, social, technological, environmental, legal and other factor within the group or geographical location where the final design product will be used. A very important thing to note is that the ecosystem is everchanging thereby requiring that digital develapers check and analyze their assumptions. The Core tenets of this principle are the following: Coordination, consultation, and constant engagement with civil society groups, the government, or all stakeholders from the start of the project until project completion to avoid duplication and ensure smooth integration with the existing technical system if any. 3. The third Principle is Design For Scale. > The elusiveness of achieving scale is a goal that has been hard for digital developers because of pilotitis. The mHealth describes it as the inability to move initiatives beyond the pilot stage. From the start it is a must to. Design For Scale. Designing for scale means planning and strategizing beyond the pilot stage. Aside from the obvious concern about funding the initiative and continuously funding it after the pilot stage, digital
