The theme was Fun and Entertainment where my group's main focus was on video games, movies, and popular music.
We mainly tried to find cassettes and videotape of the 70's-80's period, or at least some that represent the time period. Meanwhile Tyler did his video game research and found screenshots of the games from the 70's and 80's.
To obtain the items, we mostly got stuff from our homes, and had friends to find things. Also we used the internet very often to check that the items are indeed from the assigned time period, or just to see what we should be looking for.
What I would have done differently is to choose smaller and less amount of boxes, and plan to have my group work on some day in the weekend instead after school where some of us ended up not being able to show up.
For next year's class, I would suggest to use e-mail and chats to communicate with group members, because that was really effective, and we could send the documents to everyone so everyone knew mostly what was going on. Also spray painting is the quickest way "to paint", but make sure that the boxes are white.

I like the idea of spray painting the boxes
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like your project was quite successful. I completely agree with the communicating part. It is very productive to be able to talk it over at anytime.
