Day 3

Today we had some very special visitors from Didsbury High school.

We started the morning off by asking the year 8 students to draw pieces of art work that can be displayed in the mobile gallery.

We then moved forward to a designing session in the afternoon where the undergraduates and year 8 students are split into 4 teams to create new proposals for the mobile gallery.

Day 3

Today was a great collaborative day between the year 8 Didsbury high students and MSA students.

Here are some of the beautiful and innovative proposals that the students have produced. Truly a sentiment of designing the mobile gallery for the youths by the youths.

Day 5

Today was the final day of week 1. This week was filled with collaborative exploration and experimentation for the mobile gallery design.

Today we were finally able to finalise the design, taking forward inputs from the undergraduates and our external collaborators at TASC and Didsbury High School. We have also started exploring construction techniques for the final form.

Day 8

The afternoon session was mainly focused on model making. We took advantage of the laser cutting machine available at Didsbury High School and produced CAD drawings the day before to cut out on site for the students to put together.

Day 8

Today we had the chance to visit and collaborate yet again with our external partners at Didsbury High School.

The morning session consisted of teaching the students how to produce orthographic drawings for the mobile gallery, it was the perfect opportunity to develop the students hand drawing abilities. It was a great teaching experience for the MSA students and the DHS students.
