Halfway through already?!?!

We did our midterm presentation in Thursday’s class. In the presentation, we talked about all the things we had done and the future plans which included the mind map at the beginning, the difficulty of the communication with the Campus Community Garden Project, cooperation with the wild flower group, and last but not least, the idea of implementing a Green Corridor sign at the Ecohouse. After listening to the advice of the “star-studded” panel, we realized that there were still a lot of things that need to be improved.

Here is the list of the things we need to do next:

1. make the purpose of the sign more clear
2. do more research on the design of the sign
3. pay attention on selecting the material for the sign which should be stronger
4. learn the experience and knowledge from other groups and use them in our project
5. work together and brainstorm the problem we face
6. think about the suggestion of square gardening
7. Incorporate our difficult experiences into our report
8. seek other opportunities for the eco house beyond designing the sign
9. think about the question of “who will look after the garden in the future?” and try to find right solution
