Week one was a great startup week. We had Monday off for MLK day and started the week off on Tuesday.
On Tuesday we got the keys to our project room and set up our desks and computers. Kacey, Pradnesh and Jason had a quick informal meeting with Brenda about the project and began setting dates to visit the Give Kids The World Village. We also started brainstorming name ideas for the project while following the tradition from past projects working on the star project to have the word ‘star’ in the name. We also began doing research and reading about the previous star projects.
On Wednesday we had a team meeting at 10AM and decided on the name Stargazer. We then continued to do research on the previous star projects, mostly focussing on project Starscape since they are the most recent project to work on the Star Tower in the Give Kids The World Village. We still are not sure of the specifics of the project, but we hope to prepare ourselves for the time being for when we get more details after visiting the Village.
On Thursday we met with Ricardo and got some great advice for when we go to visit the village. We began to brainstorm questions to ask when we go, as well as deciding how we are taking pictures and videos.
Lastly, on Friday we finished our self assessments and turned them in and began working on the composition box for Monday’s playtesting workshop.
