Use the tools you learned about in the first half of the course to capture your learning process.

1. Teamwork and Coaching Sessions at UPC Campus Nord: These sessions likely provided an environment for brainstorming and collaboration. In the context of our project, this has been the stage where our team could define the problem statement more clearly and start exploring potential solutions.

2. Workshops on Scientific Article Writing (CIJ) and Visual Communication: Learning to write scientific articles could help in effectively communicating our research findings and proposals for tackling microplastics in factories. The visual communication workshop assisted in creating compelling presentations and visual aids to convey the importance and impact of our project to stakeholders.

3. MiroBoard Updates: Continuously updating the MiroBoard ensured that all team members were on the same page and that the progress of our project was transparent and trackable. This tool was particularly useful in mapping out research findings, ideation processes, and action plans.

4. Ideation Session with Manuela: This session likely played a crucial role in brainstorming potential solutions for the microplastics issue. Ideation is critical in design thinking, allowing for creative and innovative approaches to emerge.

5. Prototyping Workshop with Jordi Pla: Prototyping is a key step in design thinking, especially in a project like ours. This workshop have enabled our team to start developing tangible solutions or models to reduce microplastic pollution in textile factories.

6. Coaching Sessions and Checkpoint Presentations: These sessions would have provided opportunities for feedback and refinement of our ideas and prototypes. They also allowed for periodic evaluation of our project’s direction and progress.

7. Interaction with Researchers and Technology Experts (e.g., PiPe4.0, IALL, Sniffirdrone): Engaging with experts could provide valuable insights into the latest technologies and methods for detecting and mitigating microplastic pollution, which is crucial for our project.

8. Workshops on Communication Skills, Storytelling, Goals Setting, and Time Management: These skills are essential for effectively managing a project, presenting our ideas persuasively, and keeping the project on track towards its objectives.
