  • What are the different statuses on the posters, and what do each of them mean?

The different status are Open, Close, and Acknowledged.

  • Describe what you did (or what you were supposed to do) to find out if the issue you submitted to SeeClickFix was fixed.

What we had to do to find the status of our issue was to go to SeeClickFix.org , sign in into our accounts, tap the right corner with the little person on the right, then go to my content, after you were in my content you type down the name of the issue you reported and finally you will find the status of your issue you reported.

  • What changes do you notice from the April 13th posters to the April 27th posters?

I noticed that in April 13th many of the problems people had reported were marked as Open and there was actually a few issues that were marked as Acknowledge but then we seen a huge dramatic change on April 27th because many of the problems were being Acknowledge and some were even close.

  • Do you think there are any types of issues SeeClickFix is better at getting fixed than others?  Why do you think that?

I actually do think that SeeClickFix is better at getting some problems fixed than others because they might focus on the problems that really need to get fixed or that are easy to fix like Illegal dumping of trash, or maybe even sidewalk damage because those things really need a change. I also feel like SeeClickFix has many issue to fix so they try to fix the issues that have votes on them because they see that people really want that issue to be fix.

  • If an issue someone reported did not get fixed, what is something they might try next?

If an issue someone reported did not get fixed next time they should try to be more specific about their problem and maybe give more details about the problem. I also think that maybe choosing a different category to report a problem in because maybe some issues are more important than others so maybe choose an issue that you know will get fix.

  • Do you think people who report issues to SeeClickFix are able to gain agency?  Explain your answer.

I think that people who report issues to SeeClickFix are able to gain agency because they are making their own decisions by reporting issues that will benefit them later on because they are helping their community by making a change and resisting to a problem.I feel like this will will help people gain agency in so many ways.
