I enjoyed the assigment this week- each time I watched the videos I noticed a new layer of detail.

I thought the Hear, Create, Deliver method was really useful; it's important to start the design process by listening to what the actual needs of a community are, instead of trying to impose what you think they need on them. If you ask a physician in a high-resource setting what they think a really useful piece of equiment is that they think all similar practitioners ought to have, their response will be heavily biased by the setting they are used to practicing in. This probably was also a factor behind the room full of disused equipment shown in an earlier week's video (in addition to lack of resources to maintain it). If healthcare workers don't find a technique or piece of equipment to be useful, they probably won't implement it once their trainer leaves.

I was suprised that the clinic video showed the day starting with a song. Our high-resource bias usually means that people automatically see doctors and hospitals as innately good places of healing, but people unused to recieving such care may be distrustful when they are suddenly encouraged to go to a place where people get pricked, prodded, and told that there is something wrong with them that they were previously unaware of.
