Update 5/1

Hi guys, so Mandy has kind of come up with some group-imposed deadlines to kind of get a feeling of what our workload is in terms of this quarter for the course.

Including some of my suggestions of course! But overall, a deadline and goal of some sort every week we set should be ideal.

Week 5:
-Set up interviews asap, meet with divers.
-Create models on information available from first meeting with Courtney and Carl

Week 6:
-Interviews continued
-Consolidate, interpret sessions, create models

Week 7:
- Finish up on prototype
-Begin prototyping

Week 8:
-Continue working with prototype (with interviews for feedback?)

Week 9:
-Finishing touches on prototype (meet with Courntey to get final feedbacks?) ---> Final Design
-Begin writing paper
-Getting ready for presentation

Week 10:
-PRESENTATION


So, what do you guys think? Feel free to edit/add! I think this is a good guideline as of now...


Summary of Meeting - April 28th -
-Met at Cafe Ventanas to discuss project layout
Talked about models for our project, the meeting we had with Courtney

-Interface design brainstorms. How we should design our interface to meet the divers' needs, what features to include in the database search. Jessica doodled the "main page" interface --> became a useful spring board, Martin drew a mock-up interface.


-The meeting was really a brianstorming session and attempted to refine more of what we initially wanted our goals to be.


Summary of meeting - May 1st -
Refining our project focus again and talked with the TAs and their ideas. Started preliminary models (hopefully we will get more concrete). Using for sure is the Sequence Model, Culture Model. The other models will become more developed after our interviews (hopefully this week) for next week.




Ok.. I think that's about it. But... if I missed anything, comment and I will edit i guess!
