YES! we finished the project AND did really well on it, which makes it all the more rewarding. I thought the project was really fun to do. We all threw around ideas, some were good, some were bad, but in the end it all came together really smoothly. Yesterday we presented our product, the fire-fLITE, a lamp that is made for children and includes a bug book, bug catching net, and a magnifying glass. Overall I think everyone worked together really well and we ended up with a really good project. I wish I could have helped more with the drawing but I really can't even doodle- I draw straight lines -but it worked out because we had group members that did an awesome job with that! I think the project in whole was a success... woohoo KING group!

I really enjoyed this class and I thought Gabe was a great teacher. In the beginning when we took a vote of whether or not we would want to blog or to have tests I raised my hand for the tests. I'm really not too big on the whole blog idea and the deadlines every week kind of got old but overall it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. Also another thing I really liked about this class is that we didn't have to draw. While we were still encouraged to be creative with photos and such it was a huge relief that we didn't necessarily have to make anything with the exception of the final Coleman project. I took this class because it was an intro course and required for the minor which is something I am still considering. I did not sign up for any other design courses next quarter because none fit with my schedule and I would like to speak with an advisor first anyway. I really did enjoy this class though and I found it really interesting. Also another thing I liked about it was being surrounded by people that are much more artistic and creative at problem solving than those in my business classes, it was a nice change in my day.

This week we focused on the last minute details of our product and how we wanted it all to look in the end. Everyone was still thorwing around ideas that would be really cool to add in if we had enough time which is fairly unlikely. We really just need to put together the powerpoint and write out our presentation in detail this week. We are thinking it will work best to meet on Tuesday and to finalize everything. I think our group did a really good job of all putting in a lot of a effort and creativity. I personally cannot draw if my life depended on it but I tried to give feedback and work on the powerpoint since that is something I can definitely handle. 

Here is our documentation from this week:
