This week was primarily all dedicated to our prototype projects. Besides doing two math quizzes, we worked on our projects all week! On monday some staff from Telus Spark came into the class and talked with everyone individually about their project and offered some very valuable feedback. However I was feeling under the weather so I was unable to attend this. But I am very lucky as my partner was able to talk to the people on my behalf as well. But from what she said the Telus Spark people did…

The requirements are to be determined feasibly after carrying out an extensive analysis as the expenses included are very large.

However, it is also a game where I feel like I can illustrate the design thinking…

O. Brendel’ 1953 publication, ‘Prolegomena to a Book on Roman Art’, presents Rome as both a ‘political entity’ and a ‘historical period’ in which the art of replication flourished. According to this view, ‘Greek’ art, in essence, refers…

How to Win Friends & Influence People Section One Principle: “Don’t criticize, condemn or complain.” Certainly, criticizing others is something that every person has been guilty of at some point or another. Why go through the time and effort to understand another person’s perspective when one can simply point out perceived flaws in that perspective? Dale Carnegie asserts, “Instead of condemning people, let’s try to understand them. Let’s try to figure out why they do what they do” (Carnegie,…

These changes are only possible due to the advancements in technology and the great minds behind them. Technology has advanced further in the past 20 years than people even thought possible, these advancements were joked about in cartoons and fantasized in comics.
