Starting out the week, I was somewhat confused as to what was going on. I had no idea what the project was about. After my groups meeting with Kevin, I feel that I now have a clue as to what we are doing. For our project, we decided to set up a Google calendar to work with Purdue's CCO. Hopefully, they will accept our offer, and we can begin to work with them. On our calendar we will include all of the job fairs, seminars, and resume issues. Hopefully this organization of CCO's schedule will help students that are out there trying to get jobs.

Project 2 checklist

Here is my Project 2 checklist. I emailed it to you, but also wanted to post it on here.

Project Log week 12

Week 12 is done and so is teh project now.  All we had to do this week was go through Kevin's comments and make some changes to our instructions.  Most of teh changes were formatting such as spacing and changing teh font, using inallics, bold, and underlined fonts.  Before now our project was debateably hard to read now after a little work we made it more easily read.  My partner and I were able to take care of all of this in just about a half hour of talking on aim and in teh chat room.  This week went well.

Project Log Week 12

Well, we have finally submitted our final project. We had most of it done before now, we just had to make some modifications. I was glad that we had good feedback from both our peers and Kevin. We put more spaces in between steps, because it would have been very easy to confuse one step with another. We also bolded certain words that we felt were key so that they would stand out. We also had forgotten some things like a cover page, conclusion, and a trouble shooting section. After we made these changes we were finally done.

To Finish Project

Near as I can tell we are done with our project.  Because it is not due until Wednesday we will probably read through it one last time for spelling and grammer. 

Work Plan

The first thing that we need to do to complete our instructions is to incorporate suggestions and comments from our peers. I think that we also need to some basic editing to our instructions, like space it out better and maybe cut some paragraphs into two. Also, I think that we could either add more graphics, or add clearer ones than what we have now. Overall I think we are getting there, just need to make some final adjustments.

Project Log Week 11

This week went well.  We were able to get the the useability test and draft cleaned up and made comments on another groups draft and usability test. Our draft looks like it is fairly easy to understand and follow.  This week we mainly focused on the formatting.  Making consistent spaceing between lines and split up some of our steps into smaller steps with section headings.  So far the project is moving along fine.

Week 11

Week 11 was another big week in completing our final project. We finished our usability tests, and our instruction set. Ours was almost done to begin with, we just had to do some minor editing. Then we had to review another groups instructions and complete their usability test. We reviewed a group's project that was very similar to ours. Their's was a bit more in depth and started a lot earlier in the process than ours. From reviewing another groups project, I saw some things that our group could incorporate into our project.
