RESUMO
The blood Transfusion Unit of the Indonesian Red Cross (UTD PMI) Pontianak is an organization engaged in blood donation services. During the COVID-19 pandemic, the bloodstock at UTD PMI Pontianak was insufficient. When the bloodstock was insufficient, donor seekers or the families of patients who needed blood would share messages asking for blood on social media. However, people often ignored these messages because they were not addressed to the right donor, as well as donors who often see similar messages but do not match their blood type. One of the factors that caused insufficient bloodstock at UTD PMI Pontianak was the lack of donor motivation in donating blood. The existing blood donor application still had some problems regarding the user interface, and there were still some users' needs that had not been met in the application. For a design to meet the users' needs, the researchers used the User-Centered Design (UCD) method to create a user interface for blood donation information media because UCD focused on user needs to achieve user goals. The prototype was tested for usability using the USE Questionnaire and follow-up interviews. From the results of the USE Questionnaire, the researchers obtained very good usability for every aspect, with a score above 92%. This research also showed that donors and donor seekers felt helped by the prototype of blood donor information media because it could meet the user needs in dealing with the problem they faced. © 2022 IEEE.
RESUMO
In today's environment, financial knowledge is vital and should be possessed by everyone. Numerous people are financially disadvantaged as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. This serves as a reminder of the critical nature of financial investment in the future. However, many Indonesians, particularly students, are still unfamiliar with capital market investing. In reality, investing in the stock market can provide a variety of benefits, including financial security, capital appreciation, and passive income. Financial literacy concerns can result in a lack of financial awareness among pupils. Indeed, financial literacy is widely available online and can be accessed at any time and from any location. We employed a quantitative method with a non-experimental research design for this study. A questionnaire survey is used to obtain data. The goal of this study is to determine whether there is a correlation between student interest in capital market investment and their digital financial literacy. As a result, extensive action is required to increase student interest in the capital market, which is precisely what this study wants to do. According to our findings, students who have access to digital financial and investment information have increased their financial literacy and developed a greater interest in investing in the capital market. Individuals are also encouraged by social media trends to try their hand at investing in the stock market. Additionally, students prefer to invest in stocks and mutual funds over other investing options. © 2023, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd.
