The final project is very open. You can design something. You can study how people create and learn with a particular technology. You can write a theoretical or critical paper. Whatever the format, please make sure that your project's core element is connected to the course's major theme of creative learning experiences.

You are welcome (in fact, encouraged) to work in groups. If possible, you should test your tool/materials/activities with sample users.

For this week, please post a paragraph that outlines an idea for your final project.
