Today was our consultation day with Amanda on our Group Exercise. Before it was our turn, we met up early so that we could further discuss on our ideas for the exercise. By then we already had confirm on the first idea, and truthfully, we were struggling to think of a good one on the second. We tried getting ideas from the surveys we conducted with the elderly, and since their answers were quite vague, we had trouble thinking up of a good one.
During our meeting, we thought up of 7 other ideas, crossing out 2 from it via votes and the other 5 were thought out further.
When it was our turn, we told Amanda our ideas, and she said that it feels like our ideas seem rather strenuous for the elderly, so she told us to make it less so. For the rest of the ideas, she pretty much suggested that we should take them further, to make it more interesting so as to really attract both the youngsters and the elderly.
Both Amanda and the group did have an interest in one of our ideas for the second programme, and we decided to tackle it - a Soup Kitchen programme.
For now we are racking our brains to make the idea even more appealing. We will be conducting more surveys, and need to get more research and facts to back-up on what we already know.
