This week we didn’t have actual class due to the strong snow storm and extremely low temperature, but we had an online class instead.

For the pre-class section, I go through the HCD online courses. I found that I should work on different angels when I face to some problems. Since I haven’t got the chance to meet with my group member, I’m not familiar about our project. I hope that I can learn more about and contribute more to the our group project. We’ll probably meet before Wednesday’s class.

During the class, I learned about lots of teams’ goals, inspiration, and their projects. I was really impressed by such a lot of amazing perspectives. Seeing lots of classmates holding lots of great ideas and their passion, I feel really confident about helping others by making efforts to reach our goals. I’m really glad that we have Milestone such a great guider for us to provide feedbacks and improve our projects. We should focus more on our targeted group in the following weeks.

I’m really confident about making our project better and better. I hope that we can come up with more ideas after we had the group meeting. Since I joined this course a week ago, I hope that I can figure out everything about our project and this course. I’ll cooperate with my group member and try my best to help them.

I registered BADM357 a week ago. Therefore, I didn’t get the chance to visit DRES. However, after reading all the materials and everyone else’s blog, I realized this course can provide us lots of opportunities to explore more. I would never have a chance to visit DRES if I don’t take this class, and I would never know mentors’ fantastic stories and how those athletes train their bodies. By sharing personal experience to each other, we can gain more knowledge in different fields and we can learn more about others as a person.

By reading through other students’ posts, I found out that 3D printing techniques are benefiting lots of people in need, such as the 3D printed gloves. It makes me feel more inspired and more stimulated to learn about different techniques, such as modeling, 3D printing, and prototyping, in order to help other people and make their life better.

Even though I did’t go the first two weeks’ classes, I’m trying to catch up you guys’ pace. I’m really excited to do something that would help others. I’m also really looking forward to cooperating with my teammates and reach our goals. Hope we can have a good time!
