Minute-by-minute · 80-minute block

💡 Big idea: You cannot design for people you have not identified -- a stakeholder map makes invisible needs visible before any design decision is made.

  1. 0-10Introduce stakeholder mapping: what it is and why designers do it before brainstorming solutions
  2. 10-30Individual brainstorm: list all ER stakeholders and their primary needs
  3. 30-50Build the map: draw relationships and information flows between stakeholders
  4. 50-65Conflict identification: mark where two stakeholders' needs pull in opposite directions
  5. 65-77Submit the stakeholder map as evidence
  6. 77-80Exit check: name one conflict and explain why it matters for design
Mr. Mendoza's 5-minute intro
  • Every system serves multiple groups of people with different -- and sometimes conflicting -- goals.
  • Today you will map every person who has a stake in how the emergency room is designed.
  • A thorough stakeholder map is the foundation for every design decision you will make this week and next.
  • Human-centered design starts here: understand the people before you touch the floor plan.
Do this, step by step
  1. 1List ER stakeholders: patients, triage nurses, physicians, families, EMS, administrators.
  2. 2For each stakeholder, note their primary need or goal.
  3. 3Mark where two stakeholders' needs conflict.
  4. 4Draw the map showing relationships and flows between stakeholders.
  5. 5Submit the stakeholder map as evidence.
You'll be able to
  • Your map names at least six distinct stakeholders with needs.
  • You can identify at least one conflict between stakeholder needs.
Know by the end
  • Who the primary stakeholders in an emergency room are and what each group needs from the system.
  • How to represent stakeholder relationships and information flows in a visual map.
  • How conflicting stakeholder needs become the constraints that shape design criteria.

Your PLTW work today

Open this PLTW section today

Triage, patient flow, stakeholder needs, systems constraints. Debate: speed vs equity. · Stakeholder map

Day 2 of this lesson. Open this exact section in myPLTW (reached through Schoology), then do the work below.

Do this: Open Problem 1 in your myPLTW course shell and locate the stakeholder-analysis activity to review the expected map format.

Complete

Mark the stakeholder activity complete in your tracker after submitting your map.

How far to get

The debate artifact from Monday is done; by end of today your stakeholder map with at least six stakeholders and one conflict should be submitted.

Upload as evidence

Stakeholder map showing at least six stakeholders, their needs, relationships, and one labeled conflict point.

All PLTW activities are completed inside the PLTW course environment — this page only gives direction. Submit producibles on Schoology.

The plan

Today's PLTW tracker

Check things off as you work, then submit. This tells Mr. Mendoza how you're doing so he can help the class. It does not replace turning in your producible on Schoology.
