Week 12


 

Week 12 starts off with more prototype work, bringing us closer to a final product idea. Once we nail the prototypes down, we will finally have a complete idea to roll with. My prototype didn't need much addition, however, I did bring a plan for how the dining/seating would be arranged at the snack spot. I want the students to see the entire process of their food being prepared and experience their dining first hand like at a hibachi restaurant. Also, the seating areas are circular in order to maximize socialization.


We also received our first group evaluation. The group we were paired with had generally favorable things to say about our idea. How can you have a problem with a college playground? It appeals to everyone's inner child! Their only criticism was that come presentation time, we wouldn't have enough physical materials to present. Obviously, it's hard to build a whole playground to scale for the purpose of our project.

We also designed our poster in class today. We're keeping the poster simple and letting our prototypes/models do the talking. If we present well, we wont need a flashy poster to get our point across. 
Overall, I think our group is now finally headed in the right direction.
