Reflection

How did the project go?

I would say overall the project went well. I believe the project turned out as well as it could have for the limited amount of time we had. I like the design and overall look of the app.

Did the team work well together?

Working in a group for such a big project is definitely a new experience for me. Through out my 3 years of college I have rarely had to work in a group. I found myself overwhelmed at times, as when you are working with another person compromises have to be made to move forward with the project.

I took on a more leader type role in the project which was also a new experience for me. I would designate and assign tasks that would need to be done. I would try and motivate my project partner when work progress would start to slow down.

I believe me and my project partner work well together but there can be moments of frustration.

What problems did you encounter?

I think one of the problems we encountered with this project was time management. I think me and my project partner would get too caught up in certain parts of the project and neglect other aspects that should’ve been focused on.

What did you contribute to the project?

I think I contributed quite a bit of research to the project. I interviewed most of the teachers and found useful resources that helped with the research process. Tara and I made the survey/questions. I found teachers to participate in the survey by asking the teachers interviewed to send the survey on to other teachers. I created a teacher persona and scenario/task. I designed the main menu, activities menu, quiz menu and quiz. Finally I designed some of the animals that go with the apps animal theme.
