About this Project

We are creating the Survey Spot App because, in New York City schools, many students do not eat school lunch. They just stay hungry the whole day because they do not like school food. Not eating food will not only affect their health but also it will affect their studies because now they are not getting the nutrition they need to be able to focus on their studies.


Our Logo includes a spoon and a fork to represent food and this app is a survey spot for just that, food, particularly school lunch. We want to give NYC students a way to voice their opinions in a positive and impactful manner. Students give feedback on today's school lunch. Students complete a survey that gauges the reason school lunch menu items are disliked, hated, liked, or even loved. The data gathered through the survey can be seen in real-time, visible to students, school leaders, cafeteria heads, the NYC school's Chancellor, and even the Mayor. By listening to the voices of teens, NYC will benefit and so will the students who attend NYC schools.

What the Judges are Saying

I think this app is incredibly necessary and commend you all for thinking about the health of students. I appreciate that you considered multiple user groups in your solution. Really lovely work!
I loved the thought process behind this idea. Also, the project is so detailed and well explained. This app is super helpful in thinking about students' health and food wastage due to students not liking the taste of the food. I felt that the design could have been much better considering color contrast. Also, I wasn't quite sure whether this would be installed as a kiosk or mobile device because some students might not have access to the phones so could have thought of having a kiosk at the canteen for people to look through or app or website link for every student to go through. Overall, great work!
This is so wonderful! After many relatable days passing on lunch, I would have loved an app like this while I was in high school. I love that you added nutrition education for students! Learning how to be food positive as a teen helps you make better choices for a healthy young adult life, and it all starts with eating good food in schools! I would love to see you incorporate the nutritional facts of the school provided food. This can help students with allergies and would be a great resource to bring up in survey responses for those in charge to make the food healthier and more accessible.

Great job pitching the app idea!

I love this app and your pitch is great. Young people deserve to have their voices heard and have access to food that is nutritious without tasting gross. This is a great idea. Good work, team!
