Week 5

This week we had our Quarters Presentation to the faculty and staff at ETC. The main intention of this presentation is to get early feedback on the project direction, and receive help on the challenges we are facing. So, we walked them through the project design and how we arrived at it, our references and research that we did.

We received some great feedback and additional reference for the project. The concept and design did indeed provoke thought and conversation about the future of science and medicine amongst the faculty. So, it did validate the core premise of the project.

We presented our main challenges to the faculty –

1. How to present a serious topic in a fun manner?

They agreed that we must tread carefully, as the topics we address are controversial. We need to work on getting the voice and tone right while presenting these topics to guest.

2. Ensure that we don’t overscope the project, so that we can actually finish it this semester.

We have 5 different modules right now. We will be working with our client to scope it down to a more manageable and doable size.

We discussed the feedback with our client as well. He will be visiting us on Monday to finalize the scope and design.
