I began my logo making process by just clicking the first link provided. I ended up at logomaker, not to be confused with logomakr. I played around with things for a bit and ended up finding some things I liked. There are a lot of options and it is fairly easy to use. You are limited by some things, for example, I could not change the thickness of shape borders. I had to be creative with making my vision come to life. As I finished it prompted me for payment, this is frustrating. I took a screenshot of my logo and am looking forward to hearing feedback on it. I think at that point I will decide how to proceed. The first draft of my logo is shown to the right. One thing I really struggled with during this process is knowing what my capstone project is really saying. I started out with one driving question and it has evolved. We have not done any research or exploration of our revised driving question. I feel like this logo represents my new DQ but the content of my capstone does not really align to that. If we were not going to have the opportunity to explore our new DQ, I am confused about why we were allowed to modify it. I feel like our logo should symbolically represent our capstone content and at this point I am unclear about what that is; this made my logo creating process a huge challenge. I am hoping to be able to talk through this struggle with my cohort.

I personally love your logo. The pencil the students inside reflecting and connecting. It is simple and I can see the point of it. My question has also changed a bit and from the first semester and my research now is not the same. I am too a bit overwhelmed on what I need to include on my capstone. My pie charts and test data form last time or my non test data from my new DQ? I completely understand your concerns.

Totally agree with Mayra about the logo. That was the first thing that caught my eye when I opened your page. I think it's one of the best ones I have seen throughout the entire LIL website. I am also struggling with how my logo and capstone connect with my new revised driving question and the actual research I have done. I share your concern about people reading it and it all not connecting. I have even wondered whether I should go back to my original one so that it makes more sense to the reader. Hopefully we will answers to these questions soon.
