Group Meeting: 04/25/2016

Week 5: 04/25/2016

Since during the week 4 the group was not able to do much progress on the freshman design project there will be two group meeting asides from the usual team meeting held during week 5. The group's first separate meeting was held on April 25th. During this meeting the group edited the original timeline due to a time crunch. The new timeline can be seen below. More deadlines and tasks were delegated to encourage progress so that towards the end of the project the group would not be rushing to get things accomplished and have a sloppy project. 

Timeline of when things are to be done and completed

As stated by Professor Mitchell during Week 4's team meeting, the group should be utilizing the blog more as an essential resource. The reason for using the blog more often is to be more organized so all researched information and progressed are kept track of in a single space rather than with different members.  There was a hard deadline of having all assigned case studies uploaded to the blog and labelled by Wednesday night. 

Besides the case studies, the group members also drew up a rough sketch of what the potential horse stable could look like on AutoCAD. Each member was assigned to draw up another rough sketch by Thursday to improve the current design. A design of the other components of the design project is also encouraged but not required. The group will be completing this as well on Thursday.

Basic Layout

The group will be meeting once again on April 28th in order to double check if self-assigned assignments were completed. The group will also be working to become familiarized with SketchUp together during the second group meeting of the week. Other goals for the second meeting would be to create a meeting agenda for the team meeting with Professor Mitchell so that more members of the group will be able to participate more.
