2) Is the design problem a critical/real need?

3) Does the situation allows access to the required sources for investigative (Research) work?

4) Give 2 suggestions to improve on EACH problem situation.]]> 2020-12-22 01:12:31 UTC https://padlet.com/moe_26778z/3av9thdhnnnwzlj3/wish/1037065769 moe_26778z https://padlet.com/moe_26778z/3av9thdhnnnwzlj3/wish/1037065771 1) Post 2 of your own design problems.
2) Peer critique 2 of your team mates design problems.]]> 2020-12-22 01:12:31 UTC https://padlet.com/moe_26778z/3av9thdhnnnwzlj3/wish/1037065771 moe_26778z https://padlet.com/moe_26778z/3av9thdhnnnwzlj3/wish/1037065773 Many students on a rainy day might forget to bring their umbrella out with them. I usually see students rushing to get to school or go home when it rains as they didn’t bring out a umbrella with them. From the bus stop to the school, there isn’t a single shelter to cover the rain for the students. By the time the students manage to reach the school after running in the rain, they would be drench. If this happen during a examination day, the student might get sick and would not be able to take the test. Another problem i face is that, even when students reach the school with their wet umbrellas, they would dry it out on the pathway outside their classroom, and by doing this. It blocks the students from accessing the pathway.]]> 2020-12-22 01:12:31 UTC https://padlet.com/moe_26778z/3av9thdhnnnwzlj3/wish/1037065773 minma4684d https://padlet.com/moe_26778z/3av9thdhnnnwzlj3/wish/1039511867 Students tend to play ball games during recess or after school but the problem arises after they finish doing so.For instance they would just leave the balls left hanging around in a mess after they are done playing.I tend to witness the students barely looking back and arranging the ball in a proper manner for the next batch of students to use.This is frustrating as the students who want to play next will have to take some time to reorganise the balls etc which will minimise their playing time.Another problem would be taking some time off pe lessons and such as the Teachers will have to take time to pick the balls up from all over the court this might also enrage the students in the class as they are not even the irresponsible ones in the first place.]]> 2020-12-23 07:47:49 UTC https://padlet.com/moe_26778z/3av9thdhnnnwzlj3/wish/1039511867 minma4684d https://padlet.com/moe_26778z/3av9thdhnnnwzlj3/wish/1039523365 People tend to lose their thumb drives easily as their are essential for us to store necessary information which means users tend to carry them around wherever they go to.Moreover,thumb drives are mostly small in size which makes it easier for them to missing or get stolen.For instance most students store data related to their examinations which may be lead to very difficult circumstances if it were to ever go missing.Another problem would be having to sort the thumb drives out piece by piece especially  when the user tend to have 3 or more such thumb drives making it harder for them to sort their things out and what might lead to a completely unnecessary waste of time doing so.]]> 2020-12-23 07:59:10 UTC https://padlet.com/moe_26778z/3av9thdhnnnwzlj3/wish/1039523365 sitik3417a https://padlet.com/moe_26778z/3av9thdhnnnwzlj3/wish/1039680739 Mothers or guardians usually looks for hangers after they are finished ironing clothes. But they sometimes does not have enough for all the clothes as their children would use it and not give them back the hangers. So they have to look for the hangers all around the house which is inconvenient as they probably have to switch off the iron and search for the hangers to hang one clothes. Another problem is that when they are in a hurry to go out and they cant find any hangers. They could hurt themselves by burning themselves at the hot iron which is dangerous and make them even later to their outing etc.]]> 2020-12-23 10:46:00 UTC https://padlet.com/moe_26778z/3av9thdhnnnwzlj3/wish/1039680739 sitik3417a https://padlet.com/moe_26778z/3av9thdhnnnwzlj3/wish/1040051700 During the covid-19 period, people are scared to touch things as other people sometimes never wash their hands. So they use the knuckles to push the lifts buttons. They are more likely to be contaminated by the germs by other people who touches it too. Another problem is when people hold the bus handles and press the button to drop off. Some people would not sanitise their hands. It maybe dangerous because the people may get covid.]]> 2020-12-23 15:44:26 UTC https://padlet.com/moe_26778z/3av9thdhnnnwzlj3/wish/1040051700 https://padlet.com/moe_26778z/3av9thdhnnnwzlj3/wish/1040926510 Many people live in HDB flats in Singapore. Sometimes when they want to spray paint things they usually go to the corridors to paint as if they paint it in their homes it will make the house smell like paint and it could cause health problems as the paint is toxic. However, without a booth to spray paint in, they usually get the paint onto surfaces that they do not want it at. So they end up having a paint mark on the floor or wall which does not look nice. Another problem I see from this is that if they do the painting on a regular basis without a proper booth, the end product may also suffer because of the wind blowing the paint all over the place.]]> 2020-12-24 05:11:05 UTC https://padlet.com/moe_26778z/3av9thdhnnnwzlj3/wish/1040926510 https://padlet.com/moe_26778z/3av9thdhnnnwzlj3/wish/1040931701 Whenever I see people repairing their guitars or doing some setups, they usually will have to take out the screws from the back plate to access the compartments for them to do the setups properly and leave the screws all over the table. This is a problem as the screws may roll off and they may end up getting lost. Another problem is that the tools also will get lost if the owner does not keep them organised and they will have to buy new ones which will cost a lot in the long run.]]> 2020-12-24 05:15:32 UTC https://padlet.com/moe_26778z/3av9thdhnnnwzlj3/wish/1040931701 https://padlet.com/moe_26778z/3av9thdhnnnwzlj3/wish/1043873877 Could you specify what people are afraid to touch? Many things people don't dare to touch. 
You can explain more on how it is more dangerous and how people might get covid. 
You can explain how it is more likely for people to get the virus if they use their knuckles rather than their fingers]]> 2020-12-28 08:14:27 UTC https://padlet.com/moe_26778z/3av9thdhnnnwzlj3/wish/1043873877 https://padlet.com/moe_26778z/3av9thdhnnnwzlj3/wish/1043875892 Could there be other problems arising when people leave the balls out? 
You could explain further 
You could also target a certain group of students (eg basketball players) that are directly affected by this]]> 2020-12-28 08:17:01 UTC https://padlet.com/moe_26778z/3av9thdhnnnwzlj3/wish/1043875892 sitik3417a https://padlet.com/moe_26778z/3av9thdhnnnwzlj3/wish/1043895924 What if the thumb drive is big ? would i still be convenient to bring around and could there be any solution to stop people to lose their thumb drive ?
You can explain more about why it is inconvenient that the thumb drive it small.]]> 2020-12-28 08:43:59 UTC https://padlet.com/moe_26778z/3av9thdhnnnwzlj3/wish/1043895924 sitik3417a https://padlet.com/moe_26778z/3av9thdhnnnwzlj3/wish/1043902704 Could u explain why and how big is the booth and will it fit in the corridors? why will the paint cause health problems ? you should explain more why the paint will cause health problems :)]]> 2020-12-28 08:52:27 UTC https://padlet.com/moe_26778z/3av9thdhnnnwzlj3/wish/1043902704 minma4684d https://padlet.com/moe_26778z/3av9thdhnnnwzlj3/wish/1045275350 Could possibly elaborate more on how the virus travels and infects others, could also specify on who are the ones most vulnerable on getting infected with the virus, could also mention on the locations where people commonly touch for instance lifts,staircases etc but all in all it is a subtle design problem and would most likely benefit the people of the society :)]]> 2020-12-29 12:45:27 UTC https://padlet.com/moe_26778z/3av9thdhnnnwzlj3/wish/1045275350 minma4684d https://padlet.com/moe_26778z/3av9thdhnnnwzlj3/wish/1045285615 What is the purpose of spraying the paint, user could go to shops to get it spray painted or an enclosed area whereby the airflow is minimal and wind won’t be a major factor when it comes to painting the product, users could also apply such materials like cardboard underneath their product in order to prevent the paint from having sprayed onto unwanted surfaces and how would the booth be able to fit along the corridors of the flats.That aside, i do think there were some good points like the smell of the paint getting intoxicated around the house and such:)]]> 2020-12-29 12:59:50 UTC https://padlet.com/moe_26778z/3av9thdhnnnwzlj3/wish/1045285615 sheik4922i https://padlet.com/moe_26778z/3av9thdhnnnwzlj3/wish/1059000815 On Fridays, many muslim students would go for Friday prayer at the nearest mosque. They would have to take off their shoes when they go in the mosque to pray. Sometimes, they wouldn't be any space to place their shoes as they are already full so they are forced to put it on the ground in front of the shoe rack. After they are finished praying, all of them would leave at the same time and while leaving the mosque, they would have to find their shoes to go out. Many shoes would be laid on the floor and the people would sometimes trip on them. Also, many people would find it hard to find their shoes as it is crowded. Lastly many people would be stuck as there are people wearing their shoes right in front of the crowd.]]> 2021-01-06 11:46:13 UTC https://padlet.com/moe_26778z/3av9thdhnnnwzlj3/wish/1059000815 sheik4922i https://padlet.com/moe_26778z/3av9thdhnnnwzlj3/wish/1059015756 Many people have a key to their house door but some people have more than one key and it is given to the person, the parents and the other siblings. Sometimes students would tend to forget to bring their house key and this is a problem if they go out and their family is not home. They would need to wait one of their family members to get home to unlock the front door. They would have to wait quite a long time as the parents would probably end work late if they're not home.]]> 2021-01-06 11:55:45 UTC https://padlet.com/moe_26778z/3av9thdhnnnwzlj3/wish/1059015756 sheik4922i https://padlet.com/moe_26778z/3av9thdhnnnwzlj3/wish/1059028020 People that want to spray paint could just do it in a more enclosed area where the neighbors wouldn't be able to smell it for example under the hdb block or at spray paint shops. They can also not leave a mark by putting cardboard or newspaper under the thing they would want to spray paint.]]> 2021-01-06 12:04:11 UTC https://padlet.com/moe_26778z/3av9thdhnnnwzlj3/wish/1059028020 sheik4922i https://padlet.com/moe_26778z/3av9thdhnnnwzlj3/wish/1059036692 Parents or guardians could just tell the child to give the hanger to them so that they not not have to waste time finding it. Also if they know they need the clothes to be ironed before a certain day, they could just iron it the day before. If the parents are not available or busy, they could just teach their child how to iron clothes as it is not that hard. If the parent is in a rush, a way to prevent yourself from getting burnt is to face the iron away from u when you are not holding it.]]> 2021-01-06 12:09:51 UTC https://padlet.com/moe_26778z/3av9thdhnnnwzlj3/wish/1059036692
