April Monthly Summary

Group 1 is very excited to be close to the finish line of this course. April has been a great month for our group. We have collaborated very well together as a group. Obviously, in the beginning our group had to work out some kinks, but what we found was that we needed to start early on our projects and be very organized. The key to our success in our group was starting each project early and determining which group member was responsible for which part of the project. As a team we found what worked for us, which was conference calls, texting, and using the discussion board. As a group we found that text was the best way for us to communicate because we would get instant feedback. Our E-Archive was a fun project to work on, however it didn't come without challenges. Some of the challenges that we faced working on the E-Archive was working with Wix. No one in our group had ever worked with Wix, so we had to feel our way through this website and work together to figure out what we need to post and how to post. At the end of the project, we were proud of what we accomplished. Our group also provided some tips in our survival memo that we hope will help future students. We decided to put in our survival tips things that helped us be successful in the class and also things we could have done better in the class. We found that each project continued to improve over the course of the semester and we grew as students. We also learned some valuable tips from other the other group and also Bo.

  1. I'm glad to hear your group figured out effective ways to collaborate. I also learned a lot about doing group projects in an online format. It definitely presented some challenges, but I think we all learned a lot. Great job, Group 1!

    I am so impressed that you learned all by yourselves about how to use Wix! Your E-Archive is very clean and neat!
