Frame Your Design Challenge — Secondary Research
Our team for this challenge continues on with the Primary and Secondary research. Primary Research involves conducting research yourself, while Secondary Research involves collecting data from a variety of sources, which is where my involvement comes in. My research covers various other types of colleges and universities and how they may solve their parking problems. Some fascinating tidbits from the research includes the large ratio between staff and students (for example, Texas State University has, on average, 38,000 students to 4,000 staff). Or, how consequences for parking problems usually involves fines, towing, and suspension of parking
privileges. Unpaid fines can lead to academic holds.
My next step for secondary research may lead into, generally speaking, how general parking problems could normally be solved in other fields besides universities.
The good news is the amount of responses we’re getting from the surveys our team has posted. (linked below)
