Week Two

This week, my group got together and got introduced to each other. We started by setting up a way for us to communicate with each other outside of class. We chose to utilize Group-me, as it is similar to texting and we would get a notification right away on our phones. We also started to set up this blog, and ensured we all got access to it. We had some trouble at first with making sure we all had access to publishing without having to send it through the “admin”, but after a quick posting test, we figured it out.

Also during our short meeting time, we started discussing how we wanted to set up our contract. We decided it would be the “safer” route to create a more detailed, worded contract in the unfortunate case one of the group members does not carry their weight at a point in the semester.

During our first meeting, we also began discussing some ideas for our project. We did not discuss for too long, but we collectively decided we wanted to do something fun together, and it came to us learning/doing something together over the course of the semester. We also decided we wanted to do something that none of us have done before, or something that none of us are experts in. We still do not know exactly what that is, but we are planning on doing some more brainstorming soon. We also haven’t got to know each other too well yet, so our interests haven’t fully been discussed yet.
