INDIVIDUAL PROBLEM IDENTIFICATION WRITE-UP

  • What is the problem?
People aren’t able to wake up on time in the mornings and this usually causes further complications.
  • How big is your problem?
Global wide, especially places with people whom lead irregular lifestyles. People who lead irregular lifestyles like sleeping late in the nightand not getting enough sleep usually can’t wake up on time the next day. When people don’t wake up on time, they might be late for school or work and that will cause some implications. Also, if people don’t wake up on time, they might sleep late into the afternoon and would disrupt their lifestyles.
  • How will it impact society if it is not solved?
As more and more people aren’t able to wake up on time, there might be protests and appeal for school or work to start later, and this timings will only be altered freqeuently to solve the problem of having late students/colleagues. Instead of having these timings being pushed back, we should work on solutions on how to wake up on time instead.
  • Why does the problem exist?
Most people who encounter the problem of not being able to wake up on time usually make use of alarm clocks. The problem with alarm clocks is that people tend to turn off the alarm the minute thaty hear it and go back to sleep. The alarm clock won’t ring again thus they usually oversleep. Also, some people might suffer from lack of sleep and might be in a deeper sleep than others, thus it takes more than a really loud alarm clock to wake them up.
  • What is the root cause?
The root cause is that people cannot control themselves espcially in the morning while they are still in a daze and sleepy. Just to get more sleep, some of them turn off the alarm clock and continue sleeping despite the fact that they know they would definitely oversleep. Sometime it couldn’t be helped as it human nature.
