Week 8 - Gathering feedback

During this week, there was a Wednesday session for groups to showcase their prototypes and receive feedback. As well as receiving positive reviews, there were negatives too, which highlighted a few issues that may need dealing with. One of these being that our idea of a budgeting application may not be efficient for individuals who have money moving quickly in and out of an bank account, as well as the issue of individual taking spending notes whilst on a night out.

However due to the brainstorming of ideas there are a number of solutions which the group have in place to work on. For example our volunteer student consultancy service idea, when students who need support with budgeting can visit a trained consultant for support. Furthermore the idea of the application being linked with the individuals bank account has been proposed which would save time for the beneficiary.


During the create phase the group has been productive creating a number of ideas to lead our enterprise in a strong direction. However the co-ordination could have been more effective if the group knew exactly what we wanted as our key features, for example offering an online application versus a consultancy service.
