In the first lesson, each group has to choose a problem and the way to solve it and we have chosen "Smelly People In The Train".
For this week, I have done the research about the reasons and the solutions of problem. By the way, I also share my feeling and my experience. Even though It is not very far from my home to school but the timing that I go to school is the rush hour so there is always have a lots of people in the train. I know that "smelly people in the train" is possibility.
Firstly, according research, Singapore is known the country located near equal of the earth that the temperate is among 25 and 30 degree. The weather mainly is sunny day and rainy day so it is hot and humid usually there. For this problem, the government had the solution which increases the number of air-refresher and air-condition everywhere.
Secondly, Singapore is a populous country, and also has a big number of the tourist every year. The crowded problem in there is happened frequently, especially in peak hour and mostly concentrated in center places.
Thirdly, having own vehicle is not an easy thing in Singapore because the price is too high. Therefore, most of people there go to work or somewhere by bus or SMRT train.
Although, SMRT train is built for reducing trafic jam but there are anothers problem in the train.
People like to travel by train because it is very convenience, the train runs so fast, and the price is cheapest than other vehicles.
To easier get more understanding of problem, we must find out the causes, the thinking of the train users (commuters), informations of the trains, etc. The first thing we should do is creating a mind map, it is very important for us to develop the ideas of design.
