None 2nd Annual Health Literacy Hackathon CommunicateHealth & Trext Saturday, November 2, 2013 at 9:00 AM - Sunday, November 3, 2013 at 3:00 PM (PDT) Amherst, MA Ticket Information Type End Quantity Coder/developer Ended Free Designer Ended Free Public health advocate Ended Free Community member Ended Free Share 2nd Annual Health Literacy Hackathon Share Tweet Event Details Almost 90% of adults struggle with complex health information. This is because most health information is presented in ways that make it hard to understand and use. People of color, older adults, and people with poor health status struggle the most with finding and understanding health information. It doesn't have to be this way! Health information should be understandable, accessible, and convenient.

What is the health lit hackathon? This fall, the 2nd annual Health Literacy Hackathon will challenge participants to create a technology-driven tool to improve how people understand and use health information. It could be an app, a website, an interactive online tool, a media campaign, or something else! Inspiration and examples will be provided. A theme will be announced before the event. Tools don’t need to be fully developed or complete, but presentations should include a plan for how the project could be implemented and launched. Participants will keep intellectual property rights to anything they create during the hackathon. $500 in prize money will be awarded! Tools will be judged based on creativity, usability, feasibility, and best use of technology. Who should attend the hackathon? If you are a: Graphic or web designer

Web or software developer

Public health advocate

Researcher

Writer

Person who’s passionate about health 2.0 or new technologies Then this event is for you! Five College students, staff, faculty, and community members of all experience levels are welcome. Participants will compete in teams of 3 to 5 people. You can register as a member of a group or as an individual. We’ll match individuals up with a group at the event. When is it? Saturday November 2nd and Sunday November 3rd, 2012. We'll kickoff Saturday morning, and present projects Sunday afternoon.
