Kick-off!

The brief has just been released and we are excited to start 🔥🤩🎉✨

Reading papers … ++ creating the schedule on the blackboard

This year we will be working on seeking the possibilities between smart city technology and the development of social capital. Since we have to do video chatting with one of our team members, we created shared files and google drive in advance for better online collaboration.

We decided to start our works by first creating the plan for each stage, including the goals and the time that is going to be spent. We wrote those on the blackboard and started to read papers while using post-it notes to annotate keywords and questions.

Let’s see what kinds of stuff we brought, too :)
