Activity: due today
BLD & ARC: Using your plexiglass pieces, map out a schematic that explains how each piece will fit together and the exact order (piece by piece and side by side) of how you will put your prototype together. If you have time, you can start taping. But your schematic should be good and clear enough for you to give to your SLS and DOC team members for them to use in their own task.
CON: you are going back and forth between your team members and helping them as they need it.
SLS & DOC: Below you will find a gallery of sales booths. The Documentarian and Salesperson for each team shall go through these images and pick out several components they would want to include to present their team's aqua-ponics kits to a public audience. Make a list of the artifacts you know you will want to create. The only mandated component is a video, which is necessary for the Kickstarter campaign.

Once you have identified the components you want to include, the DOC and SLS shall produce a Tumblr post in which you tell us what you plan to create by March 15, and the order in which you plan to create them. You will have the following days in Humanities to work on these artifacts - please indicate on each day what you will have completed:
March 1: (what do you plan to have done today?)
March 4: (what do you plan to have done today?)
March 8: (what do you plan to have done today?)
March 11: (what do you plan to have done today?)
March 12: (what do you plan to have done today?)
March 13: (what do you plan to have done today?)
March 14: (what do you plan to have done today?)
March 15: (what do you plan to have done today?)
Remember - DOC - you are videotaping or photographing the construction of the artifact. You are responsible for keeping track of project steps.

THE 9TH GRADERS MADE THEIR FIRST PASS AT “WELDING” PLEXIGLASS. WE WANTED TO KEEP HONORING THE DESIGN PROCESS, SO THEY SPENT THE FIRST TEN MINUTES DEVELOPING A COMMON APPROACH TO ADHERING PIECES OF PLEXIGLASS TO EACH OTHER, THEN THE NEXT THIRTY MINUTES IN CONSTRUCTION. AFTERWARDS, THEY DEVELOPED A LIST OF DO’S AND DONT’S AND SUGGESTIONS FOR FUTURE BUILDERS. WE ARE JUST THIS CLOSE TO BEGINNING CONSTRUCTION ON THE ACTUAL KITS, BUT THE MARGIN FOR ERROR IS EXCEPTIONALLY TIGHT. WE ARE REALLY ONLY BUDGETED TO MAKE ONE PROTOTYPE APIECE, SO WE WILL SPEND A GREAT DEAL OF TIME HAVING THE STUDENTS PLAN THE GLUING BY STAGES BEFORE EVER PUTTING THE PIECES TOGETHER. IN THE MEANTIME, WE WILL CHALLENGE THE SALES CREW AND DOCUMENTARIANS TO BUILD THE DISPLAY FOR THE BIG REVEAL AFTER SPRING BREAK. |
