In Korea, recently, seniors aged 50 and above have been facing difficulties in using digital devices for placing orders. This digital alienation is leading to an information gap, which we define as an inequality. Our team has planned and developed an IT ordering practice app specifically designed for Korean seniors to address this issue.
1️⃣ The digital information gap in Korea was selected as an inequality to be solved with a solution.
According to the results of the ITU's 2017 ICT IDI announcement, the level of informatization in Korea is very high, so the information gap is larger than in other countries. In an environment where digital transformation is accelerating, the digital information gap is an inequality that harms living a happy life. We felt that our solution was needed to solve this.
Since it is not just a problem in Korea, we decided that it could be helpful to more people, so we chose it as a task to solve the digital gap.
1️⃣ Many restaurants in Korea have set up unmanned kiosks, making it difficult for seniors to live their daily lives.
If seniors who are unfamiliar with kiosks use them to order, the ordering time will be longer. This fact, the people behind seniors are waiting for them, brings to seniors psychological pressure. Due to this situation, seniors may be reluctant to visit offline stores itself.
The lack of information on how to book movies through mobile applications causes seniors to be unable to book the desired seats or to give up watching popular movies. This shows the phenomenon of depriving seniors of cultural opportunity just because they are inexperienced in using digital devices.
We planned a solution using smartphone applications to solve these problems and reduce the seniors' fear of using digital devices. This solution allows seniors to learn and practice functions such as kiosk ordering, movie booking, and bus reservation, and we introduced a reward system to increase their accomplishment with these exercises.
According to the graph of digital problem-solving proficiency by age in major OECD member countries, the problem-solving proficiency of 16-25 years old in Korea was over 60%, while that of 55-65 years old was under 5%. Based on these data, it was determined that the digital problem-solving ability of the elderly in Korea should be improved, so we select the target.
