3. The Problem
Students are being bullied either at school or on the computer and aren’t sure
what to do or how to handle their situation correctly. They don’t know who to go
to for advice so they leave the situation as it is and allows it to escalate into
bigger, more serious things.
4. Question.
Who can you go to for advice and how can you handle your bullying situation
correctly?
5. Key insight statement.
• One complication in the life of a teenager can be bullying. This can get really
serious, and students can endanger their lives if they do not get help.
• We want to use our app to help people manage their situation and get help if
they are being bullied.
• We know our app can not stop bullying, but we can design an app to help
students deal with their problem.
It will have scenario based problems to help students depending on the
situation they are in. It will then also have answers . It will have a search
facility on where to find advice.
We also want our app to have an online chat facility.
6. Our team, is developing an android mobile app to help students and teens, who
are experiencing types of bullying and don’t know where to turn for advice or
how to handle their situation correctly. This app will provide contact details and
a chat-room enabling them to discuss their situation and get advice.
