Context: Design for Real Humans, Not Generic Audiences | CARING Framework Week 2
Week 2: Context - Design for Real Humans, Not Generic Audiences
Ever pick up a book and realize it's book 3 of a series? Or get an unnecessarily complicated email? That's what happens when we forget about context.
This week we dive into Context, the first dimension of the CARING Framework.
In This Episode
- The cognitive science behind context (your brain is a tiny desk)
- Why people need personal relevance before technical details
- Universal Design for Learning and why good design is universal design
- Week 2 instructions: two options (Quick Start or Customize)
- How to create audience profiles that save time
- Real demo: same 3 facts, completely different messages for families vs. business clients
Plus:
Why this process takes longer upfront—and why that's actually the point. You're building habits that become automatic.
