Sede de Vida
Our project is a mobile application designed to help people become more aware of their water and energy consumption. Many individuals waste resources without realizing it, which impacts both the environment and their expenses.
The app provides important information and practical tips on how to save water and energy in everyday life. It also allows users to set goals and reflect on their habits, encouraging more conscious behavior. Our goal is to promote sustainability by helping users understand the impact of their actions and adopt more responsible consumption habits.

Learning Journey
Learning Journey
Our team learned how to use the MIT App Inventor platform and block-based coding to develop our app. We also improved skills in communication, collaboration, and video pitch creation. We faced technical challenges, such as initial difficulties with block programming and organizing the app logic. As a non-technical challenge, one team member left the group, requiring us to reorganize tasks. We overcame these challenges through communication, teamwork, and problem-solving.
Information Legitimacy Description
Our team ensured the information used in our project was legitimate by consulting reliable and recognized sources, such as official organizations and educational websites. We reviewed and adapted the information to ensure it remained accurate and easy to understand for users.

We also prioritized accuracy by using reliable sources and presenting information in a clear and honest way. In addition, we designed the app to be simple and accessible so that different users can easily understand and benefit from it.
