group meeting 18-10-10

hey guys !

the group had a meeting today. What  we talked during this meeting was following:

Assignments: 

how the assignments were completed and how people managed to complete their tasks that were given out to them the past week. I mentioned that we needed to show more dedication towards our assignments, and work with them professionally and always strive to present the assignment as good as possible, perhaps with a touch of magic haha.

the group members have taken this into consideration and i hope that i will see better results from the other tasks.

Projectplan: 

we divided the different sections of our project plan template to everyone in the team so everyone could be part of the documentation. This way of completing this task is more efficient rather than gokul doing the whole projectplan which indeed will be very frustrating for him.

here are the different sections to the group members : 

1.       over view(Neda)

2.       project Organization(Li)

3.       Managerial process plan(Ali, Kristofer)

4.       Technical process plan(Gokul,luo)

deadline to complete this is wednesday, because i will have to put everything together and present it to our supervisor so he can give me feedback on it. So i hope everyone complete their tasks completely.Submit your documents into dropbox

Dropbox:

we also decided to use dropbox as a way to handle documents between the group members. This will be a very easy way to handle different files, codes, plans etc in an efficient way. 

 project presentation on Thursday: 

we talked about this topic aswell but very briefly. i told the members that were assigned to create the powerpoint presentation,after have been seing their taskresult, that they should redo their tasks, that is the powerpoint presentation to make it look more complete.

My idea: 

I presented my idea that i had been thinking about during the week. The idea was about a technical manual over the game. this technical manual will be a tool for future programmers that would like to redo the game och update different parts of the game. For us developers, this is a great way to learn the actual code and what it means through the creation of this technical manual. 

Scrum Methodology:

our supervisor presented us to this methodology through a tem minute youtube clip. I really like it and this is going to be a helpful tool for me when im going to work on the workplan. This is very good way to structure your project so that you can get things done in a structured way with deadlines. 

here is the link for it so you also can benefit from it:

So that was basically everything we did in todays meeting. 

Tasks for the next meeting: 

Ali: work on the overall working plan. using scrum as much as possible i should structure the work of our group for the future. Im going to work with this task as much as possible and somehow present it to my team. on thursday. Also me and kristoffer have been given the part of the project plan which is to write the managerial process plan section of the project plan.

Kristoffer: To create the concept art and work with Ali on the projectplan, basically he is also day by day developing the main class of our game.

neda: is going to work with Li to finish the storyline and make it more complete, and she has the overview section of the project plan to complete.
