Reflection#5 Project1 Interviews

-


This reflection follows the Ranning model of reflection.

What Happened?
We came up with interview questions and reached out to members of the school communities to find out what they think about the way students buy and sell used textbooks at PAS. We then analyzed the collected information and identified trends and took note of information that we did not expect.

Think and feel - What were you thinking and feeling?
I was thinking that we could also do a survey via google forums and not just the interviews. I felt like the interviews were taking up too much time (approx 7min each) and we could've gotten more data if we also used alternative methods.

Evaluate - what was good and bad about the experience?
What went well was that our interviewees gave helpful information on what they thought, and even revealed new information that we were surprised about. What was bad was that we interviewed only a certain type of student, and our responses do not reflect the thoughts of the school's community as a whole.

Envision - what else could you have done?
We could have sent out digital surveys that can be used to gain an idea of what each profile type thought of the current system.
Plan - What would you do differently next time?
Next time, we will find some other time to go and interview people from other profile groups. Since this time we were only able to interview people that were available during a study hall, the information might not accurately portray what most of the school would think.

This reflection follows the Ranning model of reflection. What Happened? We did the marshmallow challenge again. Think and feel - What were you thinking and feeling? This was the second time doing this so we felt that we would be able to do this better than last time. I thought that we could take what went well and what did not go well last time and come up with a better way to do it this time. I was hoping that we would use an assembly line sort of system to build with more efficiency. Evaluate - what was good and bad about the experience? This time we used the same structure that we used last time, with slight differences. But that did not happen until we finished arguing, this time for a longer duration of time. This time, some people believed that we need to switch to a new structure design, while some people thought that we could improve on the design we had last time. In the end, we didn't have a choice but to make what we made last time, with small improvi
