Recap: you are all pretty strong on analyzing the method you use and all of you have something interesting to read and write about, so now you need to
= THESIS =
A]  write very practically about what you could make and how you would make it and place that at the beginning of your proposal (don't begin with abstract, theoretical things, the people assessing your proposal will first want to know what the project will be before they find out why it exists and the ideas behind it)  B] make something (a model or a small prototype) ahead of the next session (October 7).
 
The deadline is the 16 November, which will fly by, so apply yourself to the task of writing as practical proposal as possible and making real work to test the proposal(s) you make.
 
When we meet next week I want to see material progress since the draft you made during the last session.
