Persuading Students to Overcome Mild Bad Habits with 'Indomitable'

Mild bad habits, while they may not seem critical at first, can become serious issues over time. If left unchecked, this habit can pose a major threat to individual well-being, public health, and economic stability in modern society. Smartphone and internet use, which is increasingly important, also contributes to the increase in behavioural addictions such as gaming, social media, and internet use disorders. It also facilitates substance abuse, including alcohol. Modern lifestyles are often the cause of bad habits such as excessive consumption of fast food and lack of physical activity. This, in turn, contributes to chronic health problems and mental stress. The project aims to develop a mobile application, 'Indomitable', which helps users face and control their bad habits. This app not only helps users to be free from bad habits but also empowers them to take control of their lives. 'Indomitable' uses persuasive techniques to overcome the issue of bad habits among students. One of the main issues among students in their attempts is the difficulty in monitoring their progress and the lack of motivation during the process of controlling bad habits. This application provides tools to track progress and use persuasive elements to increase motivation. The development methodology used the Waterfall Model, involving requirements analysis, design, development, implementation, integration and testing. By leveraging the widespread use of smartphones and the growing understanding of habit formation, 'Indomitable' provides important functions to address concerns about bad habits, and also provides persuasive elements to increase student motivation.

Abstract

Mild bad habits, while they may not seem critical at first, can become serious issues over time. If left unchecked, this habit can pose a major threat to individual well-being, public health, and economic stability in modern society. Smartphone and internet use, which is increasingly important, also contributes to the increase in behavioural addictions such as gaming, social media, and internet use disorders. It also facilitates substance abuse, including alcohol. Modern lifestyles are often the cause of bad habits such as excessive consumption of fast food and lack of physical activity. This, in turn, contributes to chronic health problems and mental stress. The project aims to develop a mobile application, 'Indomitable', which helps users face and control their bad habits. This app not only helps users to be free from bad habits but also empowers them to take control of their lives. 'Indomitable' uses persuasive techniques to overcome the issue of bad habits among students. One of the main issues among students in their attempts is the difficulty in monitoring their progress and the lack of motivation during the process of controlling bad habits. This application provides tools to track progress and use persuasive elements to increase motivation. The development methodology used the Waterfall Model, involving requirements analysis, design, development, implementation, integration and testing. By leveraging the widespread use of smartphones and the growing understanding of habit formation, 'Indomitable' provides important functions to address concerns about bad habits, and also provides persuasive elements to increase student motivation.
