Visual Diary Week13

On Wednesday, our team held a meeting. The order of presentation we going to pitch is:
Introduction and Summary: Dennis
3 Stakeholder role play: Leo Priyanka
2 Final solution: Milly and I

I am responsible for one solution: hold a welcome party to promote O'week. I assume what I put forward is feasible, because it can engage stakeholders and satisfy their need. Our stakeholders are students, student clubs and QUT. For students, they can have more chance to understand school and know other people. For student clubs, they can show their advantage and strength to attract more students join them.  As for QUT, it can engage more people and obtain more attendance and thereby more students enrolled. However,  QUT which hold Welcome party needs to spend lots of time and money to arrange and students also need some time to rehearse. Once it works, these activities may achieve a great outcome.  During this meeting, we put all team members' materials together to finish the script of presentation. On top of that, we discussed how to make the poster to show our iders. However, all team members were not familiar with google sites. So, we decided to try to learn how to use google sites and make a completed PowerPoint. If we still can not make a website, we use PPT to pitch. Nevertheless, I do not know how poster is added into google sites. So Milly made a generally structure of our PPT. And then we improve it.      

         

Visual Diary Week 12

Week 12:

I did some research of other universities' orientation weeks. Like UQ, they have Events and Activities to meet people, build friendships and join clubs and societies. However, I found Qut's orientation has fewer activities for students to engage themselves. So, during the meeting, we generally decided three main stakeholders: Students , QUT, and student clubs. Qut think the orientation attendance of student is just only 80%, they want to more attendance and make more profits. Students clubs want more studens join in their club and makes clubs better and stronger. Moreover, students want to have fun and make more friends by orientation. To satisfy their needs, we selected two basic schemes. One of the ideas is holding a basketball match to strengthen the connection among students. And another is to hold a party to welcome new students to engage most QUT students. QUT hold the party, and is in charge of discipline and scheme of this party. Meanwhile, students and students club can put on performance like dancing, singing, magic and etc. Students perform a same play with others who in same faculty. Through this party, students can show their talents and have more communication with others and thereby they can engage it and have more chances to make friends. To audiences, they can have fun and enjoy the performance. For student clubs, they can show their club's merits and details to  attractive students to join. Furthermore, QUT advertise this show and provide this platform to attract more students to ensure they enrolled in QUT  and obtain great reputation and profits. In addition, we made a simple PowerPoint to demonstrate how to improve O weeks and how stakeholders thereby make more money.

Week 11:

After Wednesday's lecture, we held a meeting. As a result of choosing the topic of O week, we discussed the problem of Orientation. We put forward several suggestion such as short time, the structure be improved, less activity. In addition, we expanded the stakeholders like sponsors, shop managers,QUT university, and students. I think it is a good begining for design challenge 3 due to collaboration with each other. We assigned different task for everyone. LEO, MILLY and I are charge of providing feasible solution to problem by researching other university's orientation. Dennis and the Indian girl are responsible for keeping going expanding stakeholders and thinking deeply other problems. Afterwards, I considered Chinese university, I think in QUT's O week, QUT can provide the party to welcome new students, including talent show, which promote the communication among students. The services like restaurant, shop surrounding QUT can offer their things students to propogandize.
