How to show the information?
2

We need to reflect on the Portal the dynamism
with which the cultural world moves today.
3

KeWelta
Is a billboard that pretends to guide users in the search
of information in accordance with
cultural manifestations. At the same time, it allows to
know the most popular events.
4

We propose a tool that allow to manage the information
about cultural activities in Havana, Cuba
5

6

7

Basic Concepts
8

Cultural event that meets obligatory attributes (title, place, date and hour)
and optional attributes (description, price…). Each event has, besides,
votes and mystic values.
9

Users action on the event that
increase in one unit the numerical
value of the vote. Each user can
add only one vote, it guarantees
the existence of the mystic.
10

It express the current popularity of an event.
It increases with each vote, and decreases
during the time in which the event is not being
voted.
11

Current Portal
12

Which are the principal shortcomings
of the Portal?
13

The big volume of information that appears at
first sight, tends to disorientate the users.
In the section “The most popular” appears
already past events.
There is not available help to guide users.
14

What do we propose?
16

To define a hierarchic order between the sections
THEMOSTPOPULAR
&
ONHAND

Current Sections New Sections

Current
Sections

Head
It is compound by:
The Project´s identity with a link to the Homepage
Date
The main menu (all , music, teather, humor, visual arts, cinema, literature, dance, and more)*
The sub-menu depending on the categories of the main menu.
*If one of the categories does not contain information on the data base, it is not showed in the Portal.

The most popular
‘The most popular’ is fed with the available
information in the section ‘On Hand‘.
When an event gets an “x” mystic value,
then it reaches to what we call the
popularity threshold, then that event goes to
the “The most popular” section.

On hand
It contains the cultural information for
the next 15 days.
The information is organized by three
criteria: in a first place, the events that
have more mystic; then, the events that
have more votes; and finally, if they do
not have any of these two atributes, then
they are organized by the hour of
ocurrence.

Side Bar
Search
A link to the Project´s Blog. It refers the last
post published.
