Working Entry Week 3

 

    This week was filled with many meetings and working long hours.  Sunday we met for 4.5 hours in a group setting at which I helped revise the paper.  This task took longer than expected and as we finished, we also decided to work on our part of the PowerPoint on our own time.  I spent about an hour putting together my part of the presentation on my own time on Monday night.  On Tuesday we met again at hicks for 2.5 hours in a group setting and put together the PowerPoint slides we had created and tried to mesh our three parts together.  I helped edit more parts of the white paper and finish it up.  On Wednesday we met after class to work for 2 hours.  During that time I helped finish up the PowerPoint and mesh all of the slides together.  On Thursday Andrew and I met for 2 hours and finished the PowerPoint and handout.  I made sure that the slides would look good on the screen and I made sure that I knew how things would work in the room.  We did not practice the entire presentation because Aswin had a test that ended at 9:30pm and he did not understand where we were meeting.  Andrew and I decided to call it a night a I had been there since 7:30pm refining the presentation.  The Final meeting was Friday (today) and we worked together for 1.5hrs to make sure that we could go through the presentation in the allotted time.  I also helped finish up the handout and helped make final touches to the PowerPoint.

The goal of the meeting was to finish everything that needed before the presentation and practice the presentation before class.

We did some editing on the handout and PowerPoint and practiced our parts as best we could in the lab setting.  We felt confident in the work that we put forth on the project and believe we would do well during the presentation.
