I was off as I have COVID, but we were put into groups and my friends saved me a spot in their group so I was messaging them so I was participating. they went about town taking pictures of things that matched the prompts set by the teacher.
my group made a PowerPoint presentation of the things they found. https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1F4LMLJUVWSWztMZUSBDyX9peyED-4kP9oHONnMHET5w/edit?usp=sharing
My group consists of Me, Amy, Chloe, Corey, Dara, and Shane.
We then had to try ‘Design Thinking’, described to us as “a human-centered, iterative design process consisting of 5 steps: Empathise, Define, Ideate, Prototype, and Test.”
We had to do this as an ice breaker and to help improve our communication skills, (Listening, Clarity, Friendliness, Confidence, Empathy, Respect, Feedback, and Right medium.)
We began to discus interests and throw around Ideas, 100 of them! Then we each picked 5 I picked:
Monster High, Idol singers, Cooking, Cryptids, and Time Travel.
We worked on picking something everyone wanted to make our final world concept. We settled on “A western chef who must deliver freshly cooked goods to a village, but they must cross no man’s land, all while outrunning a dragon!!” the cooking is gore inspired from the popular Pokémon cooking TikTok’s.
we have to meet up as a group before next class to work on the homework together, I’m looking forward to it!
