Week 5

To ensure that the group's preferred product would be marketable in the future, more data was sought after. This week, we kept speaking with various CEA department students.

Again, the questions were:

1. What are your daily struggles as an (Engineering/Architecture) Student?

2. What is the most convenient/cheapest (engineering/architectural) tool you have?

3. What is the most expensive tool you have yet most useful?

4. As an (engineering/architecture) student, which of the following tools do you think is the most useful?

- A Measuring Tool - A Cutting Tool or - A Planner

5. Why do you prefer this tool?

As a group, we experienced multiple rejections from students whether they were busy, shy or some were not in the CEA department.

Our hypothesis is that we looked forward and anticipated that we could hit our desired number of students for the week.

We interviewed random CEA students and as a result, we couldn't hit our desired number of students due to a lot of rejections.

We decided we could continue the interview by Week 6.

Week 6

The ABCD group returned to school to continue the interview. The group devises a plan to streamline and expedite the interview process. Since there are four people in this group, we divided them into two groups. Oliver and I were in one group while Kier and James were in the other. We posed the same inquiries to a few unrelated CEA department students.

Our hypothesis was that we could hit our quota.

The group was split into two groups with two members each so we could interview people a lot faster and easier. As a result, we were able to hit our desired number of interviewees.

Week 3:

This week was when we expounded our scope. We interviewed not only to the architecture students but also to the engineering students, hence the CEA students. We broadened our target clients to see whether or not we could have any different results regarding to our products.

These are the questions:

1. What are your daily struggles as an (Engineering/Architecture) Student?

2. What is the most convenient/cheapest (engineering/architectural) tool you have?

3. What is the most expensive tool you have yet most useful?

4. As an (engineering/architecture) student, which of the following tools do you think is the most useful?

- A Measuring Tool - A Cutting Tool or - A Planner

5. Why do you prefer this tool?

Our Hypothesis is that we thought that we could easily interview anyone and could hardly participate.

The experiment is we interviewed 21 different students from different courses. As for the result, we noticed that as we approach some students, they would REFUSE and REJECT us for the interview. Although we were rejected by some students, we also accepted that rejections are also part of a start up and it was inevitable. Luckily, we were able to find more students who are willing to be interviewed.

Week 4:

The ABCD group conducted a virtual meeting via Google Meet regarding the interview we established in Week 3 and also for us to evaluate the responses of different CEA students. This meeting is our way of checking each other and also for us to distribute tasks for the weekly report.

During the Technopreneurship class, we reported on our group's progress. We created a presentation that includes charts to visualize the majority's response. Both the cutting tool and the planner tied in 15% while the majority responded which is 70% that a measuring tool is the most useful no wonder since measurements are fundamental to the discipline of architecture as well as in engineering.

WEEK 1 - FEBRUARY 21, 2023

We arrived at school around 10:00-11:00am. I've met with my groupmates and we planned to interview random people about what are their problems and struggles that they encounter in architecture school and how do we solve these problems. We formulated some questions to ask the people: 1. What are your daily struggles as an Architecture Student?

2. What specific things that can solve these struggles?

3. What is the most convenient/cheapest architectural tool you have?

4. What is the most expensive tool you have yet most useful? WEEK 2 - FEBRUARY 28, 2023

Our group decided to have a meeting to talk about what we have accomplished from week 1. We also talked about what our results in the Berkeley Innovation Index Text to test our innovative mindset level and the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator to test which indicates our psychological preference in how people perceive the world and make decisions. My result in the Berkeley Innovation Index Text was 76.73 out of 100. My result in the MBTI test was that I am an Advocate (INFJ-A), a visionary, often serving as an inspiring and tireless idealist.
