Each TEAM will have members with specific functions. A team member may have multiple roles.
1. a client contact person/researcher, responsible for setting up client appointments, communication with client, interviews, surveying requests for site, follow-up by showing client alternative possibilities, quality control on final project. This is also a researcher, locating similar sites on the web and working with the designers in setting up their possible designs.
2. one or two designers responsible for actually designing the site based upon the contact person's results and feedback. Each designer will go a different direction and provide alternative designs from each other. Each designer will check on quality control on the other designer's project. The client may choose between the two or three designs submitted or ask for a hybrid of the best elements from designs. If a hybrid is requested designers will work together to complete the final project.
3. a coordinator/leader, responsible for coordinating the team, keeping the team on a timeline and on task, coordinating email communcations between group members, ensure proper file swapping and file sharing between team members, acting as the contact person to the course instructor, and quality control on the final project. All the group work forms will be submitted through the coordinator to the instructor.
All team members will be responsible for quality control on the final site
submitted for the project. Each project will be submitted, upon completion
on
the due date, to the instructor on a portable USB drive. Grades will be determined
based upon both group and individual effort.
Documents for Group Work, Collaboration and Reporting
Individual Memos:
Each individual in the group will write a memo to the instructor, informing the instructor of the designated duties assigned to each member of the group (especially outlining and detailing your own responsibilities) and how you, as a group member, carried out your assigned responsibilities. This memo is due when the project is due.
Memos are turned in by each individual of the group. Within your individual
memos:
a. list all dates and lengths of time your group met
b. explain the designated duties of each group member
c. outline and detail your personal responsibilities
d. describe how you carried out your responsibilities
e. estimate the total amount of time you spent overall
f. describe all your preparations for web presentation
g. include copies of all materials, notes and visual aids, web pages, etc.,
you used in your part of the web project or presentation
h. describe how the group functioned overall, including, if necessary, any problems
that occurred within the group or any complaints you have about individual group
members
