ReFocus Bracelet

This project aims to be used by 1st through 5th-grade students with and without learning disabilities, especially ADHD, who struggle to pay attention in class. This causes them to be continually reprimanded verbally in front of their peers. Thus at a young age, many students begin to feel that they’re not as good at school as their peers, meaning it can chip away at a child’s self-esteem, and instead of curbing the inattentive behavior, it can exacerbate it.

The project hopes to allow teachers to redirect students without calling them out in front of their peers, removing students from this cycle of public reproach and making them more engaged in the learning environment.
