Abstract

The outgoing of migrant workers from China rural areas brings many negative impacts upon their stay-at-home children, most of which are relevant to lack of family love and emotional connections. This joint project of Tsinghua University Design & Human Factors Lab and Nokia Research Center Beijing aims at investigating the daily lives of and interactions between the migrant workers in cities and their children staying at rural homes, and inventing some conceptual solutions to help them to treat this sort of problems. "DreamSeed", "WeMoment" and "LinkBoard" are just three conceptual solutions generated in this joint project, which attempt to contribute to promoting the emotional connections of migrant workers with their families, especially their children at rural home. © 2013 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.
