kids: a reward system for the kids would be more rewarding and incentivising for them

elderly: engage them more in their native language instead

# data[].attributes.body
more preparation time

keep our phones away to minimize distractions

showing encouragement

have small talks while other facils are dealing with other beneficiaries

# data[].attributes.body
kids: when the kids got frustrated when they could not do the work. what worked well was trying to guide them to find where they went wrong

elderly: actively conversing about their past and their lives as well as relating it to ourselves were enjoyable for both parties

facilitators can be more patient and speak slower and more gentle.

kids: some form of reward system to motivate them

elderly: dont make them feel stupid by talking to them like a child

# data[].attributes.body
Both: be kind and patient even if u have to repeat multiple times

kids: give incentives and breaks and always encourage them

elderly: guide them step by step, don’t make assumptions that they can follow a video etc

# data[].attributes.body
Elderly: Guide them along every step and try to be patient with them. Try to take things slow as they may not be able to catch up to your pace.

Kids: Don't give them the answer directly and give them a chance to attempt it themselves. Give them some rest and candy after questions to motivate them to do more.

Challenges: Getting the attention of the kids and elderly and keeping them engaged throughout the session while staying on task.

What worked well: the task was completed

# data[].attributes.body
felt challenging to engage and pay attention to all beneficiaries equally

hard to get them to engage with the program and for them to be attentive

bonding with them and asking for their interest

challanging:

remaining calm when they are asking a lot of questions

adapting to their needs and unforeseen circumstances

worked well:

we encouraged the beneficiaries

# data[].attributes.body
student: more time for the kids and have resources available eg notes to show them what they shld know

elderly: more time for the elderly and an easier activity for them as many may lack the motor skills needed for origami

# data[].attributes.body
what was challenging: understanding from the target group’s perspective

what worked well: listening to the students talk but then redirecting them back to the task at hand when they get too distracted

# data[].attributes.body
Elderly: It was hard at first for non Chinese speakers as the elderly only spoke Chinese. They could not catch up to the facilitators pace at first but with time, they adapted to the elderly's pace and the activity was fun for everyone.

Kids: It was hard at first as the kids didn't want to do their work and preferred to doodle on the paper but with some encouragement from the facilitators, they managed to calm the kids down by giving them candy to motivate them to do the work.

# data[].attributes.body
elderly: the students listened to the needs and frustrations of the elderly and provided help when they need it

students: the students gave encouragement to the sec1 and guided them slowly, ensuring that they understand the question before teaching them how to answer

kids:

I think that the facilitators should be more engaging for the students (plan more dynamic activities), and try to take things at a moderate pace so that everyone will be able to follow closely and ensure that no one is left behind.

elderly:

I think that the facilitators should connect more with the elderly, and equally divide their attention among all the elderly. the facils shoukd focus more on building a relationship with their beneficiaries instead of strictly focusing on getting the task completed, which is what happened.

# data[].attributes.body
kids : be more patient and use more encouraging words when they are stuck on the questions

elderly : sit in a more comfortable position to allow the facilitators to teach the elderly easier

# data[].attributes.body
challenging : facilitators had lack of patience during both events but constant encouragement worked well as it kept their morale up
