Final Proudct

This project was a way to help people achive basic human needs.  It was how to take a school project and make a difference in the world.  These brojects wouldn't just be scrapt for materials and used for future project, they would make a difference. 

 

We started out with small ideas that could make a difference.  Once the ideas that were possible were chosen to be expanded on, we worked as a group to create the best possible way for them to be created, and got to work.  Check out how we made here:

We were each given different jobs that would then come together to create the final products.  This included marketer incharge of creating a website and brochure, instruabtables incharge of creating a step by step on how to create the final product, drafter incharge of creating blueprints.  For our group this created the problem of each person just focusing on there job and as the instructable I wasn't able to create the page until our product was finished.  We all ended up working on different tasks either finish the product or their jobs.  We lost a lot of communication and stopped working as a group.

Knowing I had to finish the product I decided to work with a carpetnter outside of school to finish the project.  This allowed us to finish the product and I learned how to create it, but the rest of the group didn't get to see the process.  This became a problem with the group dinamics, but we really had no other choice do to the fact that it wouldn't have gotten done.  When I brought the product back it still needed to be filled with sand and gravle, but one of the other group members kinda went M.I.A leaving the two of us to finish it.  I would have liked for us to all have better communitcation throughout the entire project.  

Exhibtion 

Our product was complete besides needing water ran through it to create the good bacteria layer, but we were able to explain it well and come together as a group in the end.  We all understood how it worked and reated and amazing final product.

Wishes:

I wish we could have got our filter working.  We still needed a month to run bad water though it.  This action creates a good bacteria layer inside the sand that will eat and thrive off the bad bacteria in the water.
