I can't believe I haven't blogged since November 4. This research project is coming to an end and I can't believe the amount of work I have accomplished.
REMINDER FOR REFERENCE:
Problem Statement:
When hiking in Muir Woods National Monument in California, there is a lack of sufficient and easily accessible navigational information.
Purpose Statement:
The purpose of this study was to research methods of providing information for visitors navigating the trails.
According to my research, my proposed solution is an online PDF accessible from the Muir Woods website containing an 8.5"x11" map and trail guide (designed by yours truly) that is foldable into a pocket-sized map. I am really impressed with the way the map turned out and I want to give a HUGE thank you to Pino Trogu and Josh Singer at SFSU for taking so much extra time out to give me invaluable feedback on my design.
I have been to Muir Woods SO MANY times in the past 3 months. And I will have to go back at least two more time to:
1. test my prototype
2. give a copy of my report to Mia Monroe who has been a tremendous help through all of this.
(I feel like this is my acceptance speech for some lifetime achievement award...BUT ACUTALLY IT IS! Because....I'M GRADUATING!)
...pending I pass all my class...
Still to do:
Thursday, Dec 10 is my final presentation to the class. My prototype is done but I still have to print and mount it.
Thursday, Dec. 17 the written report is due. I'm not worried about it at all. I am completely confident in my work and my design and I have the knowledge and resources to back it up!
