1 -**Design problem: **The PwD likes to paint and was quite enthusiastic about painting in their past life but because of dementia they are not as active and can sometimes forget about what made them happy, who they are and their overall identity. We would like to help them to maintain their identity by engaging in the painting activity which brought them joy and to do that we first like to remind them to do the activity. The Pepper robot in this case tries to trigger the start of the activity.

We would like to help them to maintain their identity by engaging in the painting activity which brought them joy. But this can be further enhanced by providing them with a personalised picture to draw which has some meaning to them, which they hold dear.

3 -**Design solution:** In this design pattern, the robot first instantiates the interaction by first reminding the PwD about the painting activity preferably during their entertainment/break time. The PwD could be feeling bored or be less motivated to do something but because the robot tried to remind and engage them to perform the activity they would likely be inclined to do it.
3 +**Design solution:** In this design pattern, the robot allows the PwD to paint something personalised to them, which will be an old memory with the help of a picture of that event, or something random that they wish to draw.

7 -**Design rationale: **This design pattern follows the Didactic Communication pattern introduced by Khan et al., where there is a transmission of information from the robot to the human agent. By explaining the activity, participants will know what to expect and how they can participate in the activity.
7 +**Design rationale: **This design pattern follows the design patterns mentioned in [1], where they show how personalisation can help and improve the overall project's design.

9 -**Example: **Pepper can during the break time approach the PwD and remind them by asking them whether they would like to paint. The PwD can choose to then engage in the activity or not. If they do decide to engage then [[UseCase 01>>doc:Design Patterns.Interaction Design Patterns.IDP\: Explain a Group Activity.WebHome]] will be executed. If they decide to not engage in the activity then Pepper would leave them alone but then ask them after some time again whether they have changed their mind. If they respond no again then Pepper would leave them alone for good.
