Week 3

"At the moment we are going in the middle of the third week and we still cannot understand what could be the main focus of our project, we know that we want to work in the area of children's education and we also know that it has to be something related to engineering and medicine".

"We shared the results of the interviews with the teachers and we started search problems of children. At first it was so difficult and we feel lost, but at the end of the week we feel more confident analyzing the interviews. In my opinion, one of the most important thing was the group work, I feel very comfortable with them".

"During this week we did tasks together with the teaching team.
We try to find insights from the information we got from the interviews. Personally, I found it a very difficult task, since working with the design thinking dynamic is totally new for me.
On Friday we made a presentation with the possible problems that we found, but we still do not know where focus our attention. I'm anxious to know how we're going to continue working, I'll tell you soon..."

"During the week number three, and almost a month after starting the project, we continued working with the information obtained in the interviews. We tried to find the insights of the problems and selected only four of the ten problems chosen. In this stage, we tried to narrow our field of work to focus in a specific issue. Let’s see what comes next!"

This week we presented our research to the teacher and we exposed our results to them. I started to do my own "mates" and I will show the steps to prepare "mate" like an Uruguayan.
First step: you have to put the yerba mate in the "mate" and then add the warm water and let the herb swell up.
Second Step: when the yerba mate is swell up you have to put the straw in the "mate" without dropping the yerb mountain. The mountain is a yerba mate that we do not have to wet until the mate loses the flavor.
Third Step: put the hot water without dropping the yerba mate mountain (here the yerba mate mountain is one of the most important things).
Fourth Step: Enjoy the mate.
