Apple Optical Illusion-Kenney,Dvorak,Antoin,Fergus-Group 38

Day 1-November 12: Our experiment is The Apple Optical Illusion which is various different pictures of an apple core with the bite marks showing an illusion of a face on each side. We want to see if there are more people who can see the faces in the apple core than ones who can't based on their age/gender. We then began on our first student handout and which consisted of thesis, questions, variables.


Day 2: We completed our division of labor Destiny completed SH 11 and 13 Brianna completed SH 12, Bryanna completed SH 14 and Emily completed SH 15. We then began discussing ideas on how to organize our project and we decided to use a poster board to display our statistics.

Day 3: We further talked about our experiment and came up with ideas on how to set up our experiment and which photos to use. We talked about how to record our data and how to present our photos.  Then we all as a group discussed and worked on SH 16. After finishing SH 16 we started on SH 17 and SH 18.

Day 4: We further worked on SH 17 and SH 18 and finished them. We also talked about how to set up our booth and we came up with a name for our booth.

Day 5: We all worked on SH 19 and 20 and discussed and what we all need to buy for our booth.

Day 6: Today we glued all of our papers to our posterboard and finished it.

Day 7: Today we looked over our posterboard once more and we made sure each group member had the google form and google slide shared with them.

Day 8: During the psychology fair we got over 100 participants by engaging students by looking at different optical illusions on our poster board. We got them to participate in the actual experiment by viewing the apple illusion while we timed them. The experiment went better than expected because we thought students wouldn't want to participate. We also thought that students wouldn't see the faces first, rather see the apple core first. The only bad thing about the psychology fair was that the PAC was super hot but other than that it was a fun day.
