Step 3. Brainstorm & Analyze Ideas (2pts)
Goal: Use the data and information you’ve collected to sketch ideas that might solve the design problem.
Time estimate: 1-2 hours
PART 1 - Refine the Problem Statement
Based on what you've learned from Steps 1 and 2, choose ONE academic problem that can be solved (or at least alleviated) by a technology tool.
In the "Step 3. Brainstorm & Analyze Ideas" section, write 1-2 paragraphs that state the academic problem you've selected based on the survey and why you've chosen it.
Make sure to be as specific as possible. For example, if you'd like to work on "time management", decide which part of time management you'd like to focus on solving - is it for allocating time for assignments? Planning out a schedule for a productive day? Making schedules to prepare for exams?
PART 2 - Do the Research
First, review our textbook and think about what technology tools can be used to solve your chosen problem. As you all may now are aware, our textbook introduces a variety of tools for different purposes - so you can get a sense of what kind of tools have been used to solve similar problems.
Then, search online for other possible technology tools that could solve your problem. Look at how other people used certain tools to solve similar problems
Tip: There is a 'similar tool' section in the textbook. You can also use "(name of the tool) alternatives" when you look for additional tools.
Finally, in the "Step 3. Brainstorm & Analyze Ideas" section of your Design page, summarize what you've found through the research. Introduce 3-5 tools, including 1-2 NEW tools that is NOT in our textbook menu. You don't have to identify the final solution yet. You'll do that in the following steps.
