Week 14 Project Manager 15/5 (13)

Project ALIVe continues to come together, little by little. This past week Jea and Eun Ju continued working on the Organization, Self-Regulation, and Responsibility modules, Joy worked with Clayton to finish up the first video (which looks great), and I worked on the PowerPoint for the Showcase as well as on coordinating efforts to complete the Alpha testing (which we will hopefully have in the 6200 Consultants' hands by tomorrow night). I read the Rowland article for this week's class. In addition, Joy and I worked together to retroactively complete the Flowchart for project documentation purposes.

After discussing the Rowland article tomorrow night, Team ALIVe will meet to hammer out the remaining days before Showcase. First, we'll need to make sure things are loaded to Moodle accordingly. Next, we'll cover what still needs to be done and who is doing what (since several of us are gone over part/all of the holiday week). Although I already have some ideas, we will also need to talk about what learning theory our project is based on (per Dr. Choi's request). We will need to make sure Alpha testing (usability) is ready for 6200 students. We'll need to shore up the remaining videos time frame with Clayton. In addition, we will need to leave the meeting with an understanding of when the project will be ready for Beta testing with IVHS students.

I am personally looking forward to wrapping things up in the coming weeks. It has been a long, yet very exciting and informative, semester. It's time to finish strong! In the coming week, I plan on finishing up changes to the PowerPoint, as well as emailing Dr. Barbour to get his IVHS students ready for our Beta test (late next week). I'm sure I'm missing something. Rest assured, we'll put our heads together and figure it out. Only 14 days to go!
