Here we go! -Identifying the Problem

So far, we have learned that our question is very vague and it needs to get narrowed down to a more specific topic. We also learned about things that people dislike, and these can be changed because these are good things that people need in their lives but do not like doing, since they are boring.


We found there is not much in our own personal lives that we dislike AND can make a difference to.


In these past two weeks, there have been a lot of setbacks. We are unsure exactly of what situations we can use to improve our lives or how to make them more fun. Currently, our project is in the brainstorming stage. We wish that we made our original 20 time question more specific.


More brainstorming is necessary but at least we established that we want to improve our everyday lives, but do it with the fun theory. Firstly, we need to define what is "fun"? This is one problem we came across this week in our planning.


According to dictionary.com:


Fun
noun
1. something that provides amusement
2. enjoyment or playfulness

Something is defined as fun if we use the fun theory to make it more enjoyable, as well as having positive benefits on daily life.

Depending on what the definition of fun is only then we can measure our progress.



We have determined that we want our fun activities to fall in the following categories:
-mental health
-physical health
-food health

To make these groups of life-improvements enjoyable, we must create a way to do them that causes us to both look forward to the activity and enjoy accomplishing it. Applying our entire project to the student body of SHS would be our goal because we want t to improve the lives of our fellow classmates.
