21 21  Missed the lecture on Monday, since I had no selftests left and didn't want to risk getting everyone infected if I had Covid (which I didn't in the end, but better safe than sorry). On tuesday, the professor asked us about our progress with the evaluations, and, since we hadn't even started doing them, he offered to let us present on Tuesday so we woule have time to werp everything up, which was greatly appreciated. During the rest of the week, I picked new songs to replace the placeholders in the activities for the robot. While picking the songs, I wanted them to be royalty free, which came with the added benefit of them being only instrumental and somewhat similar to each other. I made use of this when designing the experimental plan too: since the music was similar, I also decided to order them differently that the informative paper we gave the participants, just to make it even harder to remember (so they didn;t have to pretend too much to have dementia). On Friday, I arrived at the robot lab in the morning, tested the robot to make sure everything was fine (and it was), but by the time my teammates arrived, the robot decided to not cooperate anymore (to the point where it wasn't recognizing words anymore). In a last-minute attempt to save the evaluation and not have to reschedule everyone, we made use of the tactile input on the robot's head to move further through the program, while I mimicked the replies he was supposed to give. Disregarding all of this, the evaluation went smoothly, and we had a total of 19 participants.

24 -Put together the presentation over the weekend and Monday and prepared to present on Tuesday. Presented on Tuesday and got feedback for what we can improve in the final week for the XWiki. We split up the remaining work for the pages, and all got to work.
24 +Put together the presentation over the weekend and Monday and prepared to present on Tuesday. Presented on Tuesday and got feedback for what we can improve in the final week for the XWiki. We split up the remaining work for the pages, and all got to work. Looking back on everything, the course was enjoyable, even though working with robots turned out to be much more of a pain than any of us anticipated. Assuming we had more time, it would have been nice to get the robot to actually work and evaluate it properly, but I I feel like I still learned a lot despite this.
