Journal Entry Week 1 Spring Term



  1. Are you still happy with your project choice? Why or why not? If you are not, what would you like to do instead.
  2. What are the major roadblocks to your project right now? What is preventing you from taking your project to the next level?
  3. How would you like to change the structure of the 15% Time project? Journal entries, work time in class, presentations? 
1. I am not disappointed in my project choice. But im not entirely happy with the project choice. I would like to alter some things, but I still want to have the same concept. I just want to change the goal in which this project is headed.

2. One of the major roadblocks to my project is that I don't really know what I want to do next or where to go with it. I would love to get to the actual building of my project but I see that it will be a while before I get there.

3.) Maybe a small amount of time in class(once a week), maybe once every two weeks for journal entries. Also i'm not to fond of the presentations I think it should be saved for the final product of the project. And  

Journal entry week 1 spring

1. Yes I am still very happy with my projects. I am still very interested in my project and excited to start building. 

2. Yes there are roadblocks in my project the Maine on I think is having the time and energy to work on my project out of class also I need to learn how to mold concrete. There are still some parts of this project that I don't know how to do.

3. I think if we continue to work on our 15 percent once a week it would be great but I feel like the journal entries just get repetitive so if we did one every two weeks it would be better.

The project that I have chose to make is a suitcase desk. This project is going to be a great project because who doesn't want a suitcase that can not only hold your stuff but also can turn into a desk. I am going to get an actual suitcase that opens and folds flat on any surface. Hence the desk part. And on the inside I am going to use several peices of PVC that lock into each other. Then I am going to have a pocket for folders and papers inside and a velcrow strip to hold a laptop inside. This is the project that I am going to pursue.
