P.I.E.S!!!

Our group discussed about the stroller and P.I.E.S of some public transport. The following is our discussion:

Stroller: Emotion/Social/Physical/Intellectual Needs
Reason: The parents and the baby needs to feel safe and they can thus spend more family times together outside.(e.g. strolling in the park) The baby would be shaded from the sun and he/she can learn more things by looking about.

~waiting for a bus at a bus stop:
(P) Protection from the weather
(I) Selling Magazine and newspapers so that others can read them and learn more about the current affairs.
(E) People line up to prevent anyone falling out onto the road and thus they will feel safer.
(S) People can communicate/do things with their friends or relatives while waiting for the bus


~waiting train in a railway station
(P) Protection from the weather
(I) Selling Magazine and newspapers so that others can read them and learn more about the current affairs.
(E) Have doors that will open upon the arrival of the train so that no accident like people falling onto the track would happen
(S) People can communicate/do things with their friends or relatives while waiting for the train


~waiting for a plane at an airport
(P) Have cafes for food and drinks and protection from the weather
(I) Internet access, bookshops and game stores and selling Magazine and newspapers so that others can read them and learn more about the current affairs.
(E) People sending them off at the airport and the airlock will only open when the airplane comes so that no one would accidentally fall through the walk path and drop onto the land.
(S) People can communicate/do things with their friends or relatives while waiting to board the airplane
