1st Day Reflection

Introduction to:
1. Ideation & Design:
We were inspired by 2 videos shared by Mr Yap: Green School by John Hardy (http://www.ted.com/talks/john_hardy_my_green_school_dream.html) and “Deep Dive”.
Green School video introduced how John Hardy and his wife’s effort to build their dream green school by using only bamboo. This school teaches the students on the way to live naturally besides the knowledge available on the book. It inspires us to love the environment and protect it for the next generation.
Deep Dive tells the story of how the supermarket trolley being redesigned in 5 days by a group of designers from various backgrounds. From the video, it shows us the whole product design development from market survey, idea generation and up to prototypes building.
2. Project:
Discrete undertaking with defined objectives (often including time, cost and quality), finite project and defined goal.

·         Able to give clear instruction & priorities solution
·         Acting as a middle-man
