Although we do not currently have a lot to show for it, the state of the project as a whole for our group is good right now. We have been working on brainstorming the idea/product we want to bring in to the Coleman Home Goods line. Even though as of my writing this we have not decided on the actual concept we are going to work on, we have created and eliminated many good ideas, and come the next work session in class should be able to finally narrow it down and get the project moving along. We have decided to come back to class Monday with our thoughts on which/what object each of us thinks would be the best to work on. Out initial concept was for an indoor version of an outdoor grill, built onto a stove/oven. This idea, however, proved overly complicated and not very feasible which is why we are currently still in the ideation phase and do not know exactly what we are doing.

Everyone in our group has done a good job fulfilling multiple roles. Thus far in the project, I suggested a few of the ideas that our/were on our list for consideration, I have tried to help navigate and steer the conversation in a constructive direction, and have also done a (very) little sketching of some of our thoughts/concepts. I feel that I could try to help myself as well as the others in the group build on eachother's ideas more so that we are able to develop some of them further, but all-in-all I am happy with how we are progressing to date.

Some of our work so far:
