How can we improve our community?
Who are we as a community of thinkers, innovators?
Based on conversations yesterday after IDEAS Project Block, many groups are still in the research phase. Since research is an important part of our creative process, there is a suggestion to begin delegating tasks and roles in order to maintain the research but also begin creating. Please use judgement to determine whether significant research is needed prior to planning the details of a product or whether research and creating can meaningfully progress concurrently. The goal is to create something that communicates/interprets ideas and research.
DO NOW: Each individual should organize their thinking and research citations, notes, and links.
PROJECT MANAGEMENT: Once everyone is organized, reconnect with the question/proposal/ideation, and then take proposals for how the group should proceed, given the timeline and intentions. Remember, today's time should include creation. Determine a course of action, making sure that each person has a role.
STUDIO TIME: Make roles and goals visible to all!
Where will you be by the end of today as individuals and as a group?
REFLECTION: Set a check in time in the middle of studio time and/or plan to conclude studio time with measuring progress on goals.
Does the project plan need to be modified so that it can be completed?
What will we have to accomplish tomorrow, if we are going to be successful?
