2009-2010 EDD plans continue to take shape:

More 2009-2010 invent team members met to bring those who could not attend our last meeting up to speed. A vote was also taken to observe what other members might be interested in doing for this next year.

As a team, we decided on five possible ideas, one being a continuation of the Garden Consultant with an extra feature focused on either research about PH effects or a feature that would allow sprinkler systems to eliminate the rain variable. Other proposals included safety concerns on college campuses, and safety concerns involving school zones and oncoming emergency vehicles. The last proposal defined the problem of wasting shower water and provided a solution.

This last week we have critiqued each other’s proposals as well as provided statistics to define an actual problem. We have assigned a specific role for each and every member to raise money for our team.

Our next critical step is to focus on cutting one to three more ideas and forming groups to work on individual projects. We must stay in contact during the summer as well as learn the necessary programs that will be involved with certain proposals.
