Today we presented our final solution to the stakeholders we have been interacting with throughout semester, as well as our peers. Whilst we were fairly confident we would be able to successfully communicate our solution, the time constraint and poor planning meant that that crucial elements were left out. This meant that our presentation really wasn't a successful communication of our project.
This week, our group really focused on the report, and i think we unfortunately got lost in the micro details of the proposal and neglected the bigger picture. Despite our efforts to visually communicate our ideas, the continual focus on the details really limited our ability to get back to overall feel and mood of our goals. Saying this, I have learnt an overwhelming amount this semester in regards to the approach to design problems, and how research is such an integral part of process.
In addition to learning problem solving skills, I have learnt an incredible deal about the Foster Care system in Australia. It has opened my eyes to the many social injustices thousands of young Australians face, and the failure of government bodies to really make a change.
