Week 6

This week was presentation week for the project plans. We were given a strict time limit which would also help improve our presentation skills for the final. by having a time limit that must be stuck by, the students had to make sure that they covered everything they deemed necessary and important in the time given. It helped with the skill of prioritizing and task management.

My presentation was fine. the only criticism was that my PowerPoint slides held a little too much information. they should only be for visual aid, not for actually relaying in depth information. Apart from that, the criticisms were minor, granted that the project had not yet been started so there was not much to comment on. i guess that will come in the next few weeks as we start to construct the final project based on our completed project plans.

After the presentation it was time to really start thinking about the construction and how i was going to go about it. i did however find that even though i had an in depth project plan, more planning still had to be done. i had covered the features and aspects in relative detail for the project plan, but in order to reduce error and construction time, i would have to delve further into the designing of the project and its appearance and functionality before i could begin the construction.
