Project: Idea Box
Group Member Names: Justin Volk, Amy Karnaze, Katy St Sauveur
Goals and Expectations for the Project (What does each group member hope to get out of this project? What do we want to achieve as a team? How will we know that we're successful?):
We would all like to accomplish learning goals together. These include:
Create HTML and CSS for Magic 8 Ball markup.
In HTML allow the ball to provide inital message without any functionality.
Work with JS to create functionaity.
Use querySelector to target the HTML message.
Use eventlistner to manage your clicks.
What are each of our learning goals for this project? What drives us in this project?
Katy would like more experience refactoring in JS. Brian would like more experience regarding how the classes will be utilitzed the project. Steph would like to expand her working knowledge of JS and have no fear executing it on her own.
We are interested in both completion and learning during the course of this project.

What role has empathy played in your life and how has it helped you?
I try to be as empathetic as possible. Sometimes I fail, most of the time I succeed. Oftentimes I am in need of empathy from others. Going through the articles, I was reminded of a time when I was riding the NY subway with my husband and there was a man across from us that was struggling to sit up and was vomitting Doritos. My husband got up from his seat, helped to get him upright and found a nurse to care for him, all the while I was trying to avoid him like the plague. It has become very important to me to attempt to be empathetic towards others because we can all be kind and do better.
