WEEK 1 JOURNEY

 

   Since our first problem in the community sector is common because of the increasing crimes in our country, there is a lot of solution like creating an application to call a specific authority to a specific emergency, and our second problem under the health sector is focused on students who have depression and anxiety, it is impossible to have an interview with our customer or user who has depression. 

    We only focused on our third problem which is under the environment sector that during pick hours, there are not enough transportation vehicles available, which can result overcrowded and discomfort for passengers.

At the terminal passengers traveling to Bukidnon provinces, Davao, Butuan and Surigao were on board. Passengers had a long queue and some of them had been waiting 5 hours just to get on the bus. The bus dispatchers also couldn't stop some passengers from colliding. There were also some passengers who were in the window of the bus just passing by. Some will also be allowed to get on the bus only to reach their respective destinations. Despite this, there is still a strict inspection of luggage entering the terminal. There were also soldiers and police officers guarding security. The influx of passengers is still expected today where the journey is still normal. The RTMI bus from Agora Terminal until 8 a.m. was due to take off on Friday. They were back at 5 p.m.

THIRD PROBLEM: Environment Sector




QUESTION FOR GATHERING INFORMATION




Here is our week 1 interview at the Agora Bus Terminal:


Agora Bus Terminal, Cdo City is one of the popular Transportation Service located in ,Cagayan de Oro City listed under Transportation Service in Cagayan de Oro City, Bus Station in Cagayan de Oro City.






          According to the passenger, they have no difficulty in public transportation if week days because they believe that Cagayan De Oro has enough number of buses for the passengers and there's also a passenger who have a difficulty in public transportation especially during rush hour that dozens of passengers scrambling to get on bus.

               Passenger also agree If the bus transportation has its own online platform and they mostly prefer a mobile app, by one click in there phone they already  in the app. 

    
Interviewer: Would you prefer booking process when traveling?

 "If ever naa, it is a very nice idea" - John Mark Hinaut.


 

Overall week 1 outcome:




     During our first week of interviews, it is hard to find a passenger who was willing to take the interview and make a conversation with us. It is because most of the passengers in the Agora Bus Terminal that we trying to interview are rushing to get on the bus and some of the conductors, drivers, and inspectors of the bus refuse our interview. So, we decide to have an interview to the passengers outside in the Agora Bus Terminal.

Designing the Prototype of Busina: A Bus Tracking and Monitoring App Because prototypes are built on so much other information, it’s important to gather the necessary details in advance. Consider the following:  What are the goals of the project?  What competitive products do people currently use? Who is the audience? What are their goals? What type of product is it, and what (device) is it for? Are there any visual precedents to follow?  Prototyping is a critical step in the development of any app, and Busina is no exception. The design of the Busina prototype was focused on simplicity and ease of use, while still incorporating all of the essential features and functionalities required for bus tracking and monitoring. The prototype was tested with a select group of bus company representatives to gather feedback and refine the design. Image1. The Figma of Busina App The process of prototyping—from creating simple wireframes to testing fully functional mockups—is one of the most potent

  Testing and Validating the Busina Prototype: A Bus Tracking and Monitoring App Why Do You Need Prototype Testing? Prototype testing is not just about gathering feedback and insights from the users and giving that information to the developers. There are a lot of benefits that prototype testing and evaluation offer; let’s have a look at 4 top ones: 1. Reduces Overall Time and Cost Fixing a product while still in the testing phase is a much simpler and easier way of proceeding with the launch. Because  once you launch the product, you’ll need a lot of time and money to roll back the launch and the changes.  That can damage not only your finances but also your reputation – which is invaluable. That’s why prototype testing gives developers the perfect opportunity to fine-tune their product before it is released.  2. Increases User Involvement  When you begin with the prototype testing stage, users get a first-hand exclusive look at the product before anyone else in the market. This is a
