In today’s lesson and for homework you are going to complete the Brain Dump task where you identify problems which may lend themselves to being solved by developing an app.
Learning Outcomes
You will learn:
- To identify problems in your day-to-day life
- To decompose problems into sub-sections
- Research possible ways of solving such problems
Brain Dump Task
Each member of the team should come up with at least two or more different ideas for problems that possibly can be solved by making a phone app. Each team member should in their ‘Apps for Good’ doc write a section which includes the following:
- What is the problem e.g. “unhealthy hair”
- Description of the problem e.g. “People have different types of hair. For example, some people have greasy hair others dry hair. Some have split ends others fairly healthy hair. Treating hair with correct shampoo, conditioner, brushing and cutting can be very difficult”.
- What could an app do to help?
for example:
- Suggest different shampoos
- Suggest different conditioners
- Suggest brushing/combing frequencies
- Suggest cutting frequency
- Other treatments
4. Potential problems?
for example:
- Collecting the data could be difficult.
- Could suggest links with more severe medical problems.
Research
Show the URL of where you have done research and say what you have found.
Your Job
- Discuss ideas with members of your team.
- Try exploring your day from getting up to going to bed and list all the problems you may encounter. The size or seriousness of the problem does not matter.
- Complete the ‘Brain Dump’ task in your CT Workbook as described above. This needs to be completed by next lesson.
- Respond to this post with the URL of your CT Workbook.

Excellent Brain Dump task with research but what conclusions have you come to? You need to say from the work you have done which problem or problems may lend themselves to be solved by an app.

Good analysis here but you need to show research that you have carried out to see of anybody has tried to make apps for these problems.
DeleteI have carried out the research to find out whether anyone has attempted to make these apps. I have copied the links and told you what the reviews have been like. Here's the link: https://docs.google.com/a/gillotts.org.uk/document/d/19NUaB1ogX6TLDUuDOxeRkLAOz2oQOWH81Po_4GUnv5I/edit
