Educational CD Rom commission by the UK National Health Service
in 2002, aimed at teenage boys, to raise awareness of
sexually transmitted diseases and teenage pregnancies.
(Part of a goverment initiative to help young men understand
their role in a healthy society).
In
order to learn to communicate these complex issues effectively
with a teenage audience, the research involved co-ordinating
13 workshops with young men in detention centres across the
South East of England. From this research, the CD Rom was designed
to function like a non-linear computer game, where the user
is taken through interactive real-life scenarios, making choices
and then dealing with the resulting outcome.
