Overlap

There are many commuters that travels to school, and university & college. These commuters have trouble making new friends as they do not have time to participate in extra-curricular activities and other events due to their long commute to go back home. They always had the feeling to make new friends during their same daily commute or something that is similar.

Quick Summary 

A mobile application that can allow all commuters to connect with someone that is travelling on the same route to a similar destination and have similaries. 

Lessoned Learned

• This is a mobile app that I was very interested to work with as its related to transportation, which is something that I am interested in. With the interest and transportation and being a regular daily commuter to university, I realized that many commuters like me have a feeling where it would be great to make new connections through our commute. With the support of my team, I have done lots of research about commuters, different competitors to our potential app, and translate these research to rest of my team, so they can proceed with the UX/UI Design of this mobile app.

• I have gained a more experience in project management by using agile methodology to assign each tasks to each group member, set deadlines for each requriement. We were keep recreating the product until we feel like its the best to submit. 

Reflection

Overall, this project have made me to learn so many greatful things from the hackathon. I had the opportunity to connect with most of the judges and mentors during the networking event to learn more about the UX/UI Industry. This is one of my hackathon, where I worked only on UX Research and done Project Management. I had learned a lot from my team members such as new concepts that I never heard before such as persona spectrum, and turn survey data responses into proper data visualization poster. This experience have made me to expand my interest of pursuing a career within UX Research and Product/Project Manager.
