Extreme mental unrest - mental health, seniors, children

Extreme financial swings - gas price hikes, food prices, stock plunges

Our challenge.

As BCIT students, we are tasked with developing web applications to help make someone’s life better. We are up for the challenge.

Our complex world.

Consider ALL ROLES that revolve around these issues.

What are some “problems” that these Personas may face?

• what can software do to make life easier for us humans?

• what issues, logistics, opportunities, or needs might be unique to our times?

Our toolkit.

As a collaborative diverse-background BCIT team committed to Agile Project Management and User-Centred Design, with CSS, HTML, JS, backend database strategy of your choice, and any other web development skills you have learnt, or will learn, from courses, or on your own, you will craft and implement a web-based solution to address an opportunity relevant to our times.

You will put everything you’ve learnt to the next level.
