  Present Situation: Today’s shopping and retail experience are constantly evolving due to the evolving of advanced technology over time. There are two options where people can shop, which are online shopping and physical shopping. Online shopping, while convenient, but it has several limitations and challenges for customers. Physical shopping, while inconvenient, but it contains several challenges like online shopping too. So, both options are the same where they both contain inevitable trouble.

  Present Situation: Food and dining are essential for everyone. Humans need food and meals to survive. Due to human laziness, people have always relied on restaurants for food.

W1: Future Education 2060

Present Situation:  Education is essential in today's society. People acquire new knowledge, enhance their critical thinking skills, and fulfill their needs through education. However, according to current education, almost every school still uses traditional teaching methods and processes to conduct the education. For example, all students must attend classes according to a school-provided schedule, and each student must sit for exams and submit assignments at a specific time. While this educational approach may produce some academically successful students, it fails to address the diverse needs, motivations, and abilities of students in this world. Key Challenges: One of the current challenges is the lack of personalization in education. Every student learns differently. Some students prefer hands-on learning to truly absorb knowledge, while others can learn simply by reading books, and so on. However, teachers cannot provide one-on-one tutoring for every student, leading to a la...
