02.03.16 | Integrate, Interact, Intervene: Setup & Personal Contribution

For project setup, Casey, Kayla and I all met up during our scheduled class times on Monday and Wednesday the week of Thomas' absence, as well as meeting out of class that Friday (5 Feb) in order to distribute our project proper.

Materials!

What we ultimately went with was an "LED Tic-Tac-Toe" setup consisting of a 12x12", two-layer felt / foam board with a 3x3 grid overlaid in construction paper. The actual "X" and "O" shapes were made using small glowsticks, which fortunately came with little joints to allow them to easily remain in the "O" shape. In addition to the setup for the game, we also provided manila envelopes to store the final tic-tac-toe pieces and a journal set up next to the "station" so users could record their matches, ideally circling the winner. I personally made the boards out of 12x18" foam and felt boards (two of either of which provided enough material for three boards), the manila envelopes, and structuring / presentation for the journal format.

Some proposed areas we could distribute them in were the Health & Wellness Center (see prior blog post), the library, the Starbucks in the "satellite" plaza portion of campus overlooking the bridge to Pace, and possibly the gym.
