Chelsea-Work Log 14

Your Name: Chelsea
Partner’s Name(s): Kathleen & Emily
Week: February 16-20, 2009

1. Briefly describe what you PERSONALLY accomplished this week:
This week I finalized the plant profiles and gave them to Kathleen so that she could start uploading them to the website. I also started researching the conservation of wetlands and writing the article about “killer” algae that is taking over the coasts of southern California. I worked on researching about conservation strategies and organizations and agencies that specialize in the conservation of wetlands. On Friday Emily Atkinson came to our class and spoke about MSCP, the Multiple Species Conservation Program, which is one of the agencies that I researched about. That presentation helped me understand MSCP a lot more. I also started to write more articles that will be on the website.

2. Briefly describe what your TEAMMATE(S) accomplished this week:
This week Emily finalized the animal profiles and sent them to Kathleen to begin uploading them to the website. After she finished the animal profiles she began to work on articles about the different types of wetlands. This week Emily also worked on writing the voice over scripts for the movies informational videos as well as finding pictures for the videos.

This week Kathleen worked on finalizing the template for the website. After she finished the website, she began uploading the animal profiles to the website. While she was putting in the animal profiles she also put in the images that went along with the profile. Along with inputting the profiles she also read a book about html so that she could figure our how to make the pages of the book flip and still have an index on the side.

3. Briefly describe how you and your partner(s) ASSISTED each other this week?
Through out this whole week we worked independently to accomplish the most amount of work. So far, this technique has been working in our favor and we are ahead of our projected schedule. If we continue at this rate we will finish our project ahead of time and be able to tweak it as needed.
