“Success is the sum of small efforts, repeated day in and day out.”\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

– Robert Collier<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

We’re now at week 8. Coming back from reading break should have seemed like a luxury, but the majority of our group has come back only to be buried in multiple commitments and tasks (thus, this week has earned the adoring nickname of ‘Hell week<\/em>‘). After dealing with a\u00a0slight rejection<\/em> (and major discouragement) in receiving feedback from our project proposal, which can be found here:\u00a0Sustenance-Festival-Proposal<\/a>.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

After our week 8 check-in, we were able to regroup and reflect on our moments of significance throughout this course:<\/p>\n

Visually, we interpreted and grouped our collective moments in the form of a chart, shown below:<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

We’ve listed some individual thoughts and feelings below..<\/p>\n

Luisa:<\/strong><\/p>\n

What? — I think finding out my project and meeting my group was a big one for me. I was super excited to learn that I got to work on such a creative project with both familiar and new faces!<\/p>\n

So What? — From there, I got a clearer picture of our group dynamic and what it would be like working together. I find this was really important since we got to clearly outline what our expectations were for each other, the project and ourselves. So far, it seems like everything is in line with those.<\/p>\n

Now What? — Fortunately, our teamwork has been effective since we clarified everything at the beginning. Now, I hope to continue working well together and close in any gaps in our collaboration. For example, we will be outlining our weekly objectives so to enhance communication and group vision, so that all of us have a united and planned the idea of how we’re going to approach the upcoming weeks.<\/p>\n

Jeff\uff1a<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

What? —\u00a0 For me, meeting with our community partners has been the most significant moment in the project thus far. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

So what? —\u00a0 Getting out of the classroom and into the community on repeated occasion with the intent of building a relationship and accomplishing a goal with Vancouver Park\u2019s employees feels both rewarding and as though it meets my ambitions for my current stage in my education.<\/span><\/p>\n

I came to the second meeting with a deeper knowledge of not only the Sustenance Festival but of our community partner and the individuals we are working with. \u00a0\u00a0I found this allowed for richer and slightly more personalized conversations surrounding how we can reach our goals for the project.<\/span><\/p>\n

Now What? —\u00a0 Moving forward I feel the majority of our communication with our community partners will be virtual. \u00a0\u00a0Here, the key to being successful will be carrying that same dynamic conversation from real life into our online conversations. \u00a0Also, bringing that same energy and knowledge to the recordings of the individuals found in the material we will be weaving into our podcast. <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Nian:<\/strong><\/p>\n

What? — Meeting with our community partners and our groups in a busy, crazy mids&dues\u2019 week is both a relief and an exciting moment this term so far.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

So what? —\u00a0After meeting and discussing\u00a0with Stepho and Branda, we are more clear about the objectives and how we can improve our project. It is a great chance for me to learn more about Vancouver and why and how the project can change or influence current situation. Although we haven’t started to record the podcast, I am pretty confident that our group will make the podcast attractive and can help others better understanding the Vancouver Sustenance Festival.<\/span><\/p>\n

Now what? — We have done the schedule of our project and now it is the time for us to implement it. It is true that we don’t have much time left and all of us are busy working, studying and preparing for the project. I hope everything will be fine!<\/p>\n
