THE DAY HAS COME!!

Today, begining from the morning we were in the streets. And thanks to the amazing Danish weather, it rained! So we went to the studenthouse which was a good idea because it was full of students and they all cared about innovation. Our next stop was the central library and people in there were more serious but we still managed to talk to some people and did a couple of different activities. We had questionaires, completing drawings and of course the marsmallow challenge. And this time we ate rest of the marsmallows :D After our activity we headed back to the college and talkeed about our day and did some evaluations about our module. And also we listened to a really facinating presentation about a youth football project which was an example of social innovation.

Now that we introduced innovation to schools and students, it's time to spread it even further. So, Nicolai decided to divide us into different groups each of which will work with a different environment. We are the street group so we have to go to streets and talk to people about innovation.I'm a bit nervous about it but I'm also sure that it will be a lot of fun because I have the best team in the world! :) Oh and one more thing, we tried to do the marsmallow challenge and it didn't work well. I guess I; can only challenge marsmallows when I eat them! :D

This week we were in action! We went to the school and worked with dtudents about innovation. And I can't tell how amazing was it. They were so eager even though it was something that they didn't even heard of before. And although there was no teacher during the work they were this focused and silent. So it worked really well and we had the first drawing of our dream corridor with my group :)

Now that we learned what is innovation it's time to make students understand how it works. So, this time we'll be doing the same project that we did with our students. However, they're not as lucky as we are because, they have to finish the project in a couple ours. This week we need to make a detailed plan of our project and decide which steps to follow. unfortunatelly, both of my teammates were in teaching practice this week so it didn 't work that well for us! We'll meet up and make our plan this week. But here are some thing that I tried to do on my own during the lesson :)

Presentation week

  this week we're finally ready to present our ideas to students in our observation school.
Our project was mostly liked by the students and they agreed with our observations.Their only concern was that the project would be too costy but we end up finding alternative ways to reduce the budget so maybe some parts of our design can be easily applied to school and it can be really practical.

After spending a couple of weeks and branstorming we finally had an idea about what to do for our project. So, we started to do a prototype and make it ready to present in the school.We did something really simple but it is enough for students to understand our idea.With our innovation we aimed to make a difference internal design which will help students in various ways.Here are some looks from the prototype.

Brainstorming for innovative projects

   To get a different perspective Lillian asked us to think with perspectives of different figures and brands who inspires people in all around the world. Some of them are President Obama, Nİke, Urban Outfitter, Jamie Oliver and Cristiano Ronaldo...While thinking about them we were asked to be as crazy as we can and to have no boundries.At some point to expand our imagination we even took a little walk to the moon :) Well actually to garden but we were supposed to think as we were going on a trip to outer space which I think was really helpful.

And the last picture is our stadium shaped desk which is inspired by Cristiano Ronaldo :)
