Group Evaluation

Plus Minus Interesting
We were able to work more productively by following our rules. Our rules were there to help us to create a better working space and improve our work.Editing on the documentary took a lot of time. Harvey had to miss some of his personal time to help out the group. This meant that we had to make harvey focus on the editing while Oscar and Shawn worked on the website and making sure everything is up to our standard.We started to learn how to edit videos using a greenscreen/bluescreen. This helped us in our video appearance but since we are still new to this it meant that it could look a bit novice at times.
Our quality of the information. We used a multitude of sources to help find our information about our devices. We didn’t follow our work plan. For the start and most of the middle of our working time we were able to follow the plan but towards the end we needed to catch up a bit.We created a website using wordpress for the first time. Creating websites isn’t new to us but using this new software made it so that we needed to learn how its features worked but also how we can implement them.
We were able to clean up our speaking mistakes in the editing of the video. We were all a little camera fright but using Harvey’s editing skills helped with reducing our errors in our documentary.Our audio and video equipment weren’t that great. The video and audio of the documentary wasn’t the best due because we didn’t have great equipment on hand. You can hear a lot of background and white noise in the video and the quality of the video was poor because we filmed on our phones.We missed our own set deadline. We missed the deadline by just a bit because we were editing our video in the lesson but we were able to finish most of our parts. This wasn’t the worst thing in the world because we made our own deadline far before the actual deadline.

Rules:

  • Everytime we do planning for the documentary we document it on the blog – This rule is to help insure that we are working on the assessment on every lesson as well know what everyone is doing when they work on the assessment.
  • Ask for approval by group members before making changes to the site design or other features – This rule is to make sure that no one person has all the power to make a change in the website that everyone is happy with the website
  • Keep tabs on other groups to make sure we aren’t falling behind – We need to make sure we refer to other groups because we need to compare the quality of our answers and how much they have done.
  • Refer to the marking criteria – This is a very important rule to make sure that we cover all the required parts to get the most marks out of our assessment. This also makes sure we don’t do too much extra work than there needs to be.
