Light Em' Up

A Cause and Effect Game by Circuit CitEE

 

Background and Motivation

ADEC Inc is a local organization in South Bend whose mission is to help community members open their hearts,minds and doors by providing opportunities and inclusion for those they serve. By enhancing the lives of people with disabilities, ADEC enriches our communities through the diversity that comes from inclusion. ADEC serves people of all ages who experience developmental disabilities and delays, as well as other specials needs such as visual and physical impairments. From infants to senior citizens, ADEC Inc can provide direct services; information or referrals to help individuals and families meet the challenges of living with disabilities. In our research, we learned that some of the clients ADEC serves cannot fully grasp the relationship between cause and effect.

Our goal was to develop to a game using simple technologies to help ADEC’s clients understand the principle of cause and effect.
