Second week
On the second week, additionally to the graphic designers and media students joined also a group of 6 IT students from Hungary. The first group, especially the media students already there for a week and were ready to lead a small team with other comptences.
I have to confess it has been a huge challenge to cooperate with the new group as they nearly couldnt speak English neither German. I thought with Manuel and the first group that we could not achieve anything with them as additionally the behavior of the half of the group was not showing any motivation or interest while also creating a weird group dynamic. However we have been really surprized the next weeks by the achievements of 3 of them who made an amazing work in 3d modelization while using such tool for the first time.
Gergely working on the 3d model for Travelshack was hands on support to guide the new comers.
