Week 1 HW: Principles and Practices
Project Ideation Process with ChatGPT 5.2 My project idea originated from my previous experimentation with algae-based bioplastics (alginate), as well as from a biomaterials workshop I attended during the 14th São Paulo Architecture Biennale. In this workshop, biomaterials researcher Heidi Jalkh presented her work combining oyster shell waste with alginate, resulting in a paste-like material that could be molded and dried into solid blocks.

WEEK 2 Assignment AI Assistance Disclosure For this week’s assignments, I continued using ChatGPT as a learning support tool to help clarify key concepts that were not yet fully formed in my understanding. I used it primarily to better comprehend the questions and to guide my reasoning process while developing my responses. I uploaded and referenced the lecture slides materials directly within ChatGPT so that they could serve as the primary foundation for the explanations and guidance provided. ChatGPT was used to support conceptual clarification, provide structural guidance, and help organize the final responses in a clear and coherent manner.
