Benilde Senior High School students from the Accountancy, Business, and Management (ABM) strand recently participated in the second edition of Animo Create: Benildean Youth Shaping What’s Next, a three-day design thinking workshop led by the Hub of Innovation for Inclusion (Benilde HiFi). Held from June 9 to 11 at the Augusto-Rosario Gonzalez Theater, the program challenged students to address real-world issues through empathy-driven innovation.
Three standout projects emerged from the final pitch session. The top-ranked entry, Information Schedule System (ISS), proposed the first fully integrated real-time train information system in the Philippines. Designed to ease commuter stress, ISS features digital boards at train stations and a web-based platform that provides live schedules, crowd density visuals, fare estimates, GPS routing, and weather updates. Accessibility is prioritized through text-to-speech and multilingual options, promoting sustainable transport and informed commuting.
