Week 3
Proposal

This week was our proposal presentation. We had spent quite a bit of time preparing for this proposal, but unfortunately I think we slightly headed down the wrong track. We spent too much time discussing what we did last semester and although we did discuss how we were going to use our previous work in implementing our plans for this semester, I don’t think we covered this deeply enough. One mistake that we seem to have made on a number of occasions and really need to take care that we don’t do again, is that we were just too broad and didn’t go into enough detail of our proposed plans for the semester.
We did however provide numerous illustrations and a brief story board so as to better get across our ideas, and I did feel that we were able to be successful with proposing our semesters plans, it just would have gone a lot better if we had gone into more detail about what we were going to do THIS semester and how we were going to go about doing it.


I also met with Dr. Prangnell that Monday afternoon and showed him the proposal that I had presented. He was very impressed with it and the work that we had gotten done so far. I discussed with him an idea that Ted and I had had for the project in order to make it more interactive and educational. I had mentioned this idea to him in our first meeting in week 1, however we went into more details with him this time and explained how we were going to implement it. (see week 2 blog) As explained in week 2’s blog, we decided to use poser figures as information points (see Layout Plan Below) to give the user information about certain buildings and areas within the paradise township. Dr. Prangnell said that he would write up some brief information about each of the buildings or areas that each info point (Poser figure) relates to.
