March 9 - 13, 2009

1. Briefly describe what you PERSONALLY accomplished this week:

This week my group and I only got a total of about three days to work on our project because Thursday and Friday were devoted to camping in Julian. However from Monday to Wednesday I was able to accomplish all that I needed this week. I was able to finish our group's power point and other material for our science presentation. In addition, I took a break from our presentation and continued to upload articles as well as begin writing more articles for our website. I was able to upload all the articles for the conservation and chemistry page. I continued to do this throughout the weekend as well as tweak previous webpages.

2. Briefly describe what your TEAMMATE(S) accomplished this week:

Monday to Wednesday, Emily was dedicated to finishing all the videos for our website, which she was able to accomplish by Wednesday. She is also planning to upload the videos onto YouTube soon so that they can be embedded onto our website. From Thursday to Friday, Emily was able to serenade us with her wonderful voice and guitar skills.

This week Chelsea continued to work on the flash components for our website which is no doubt a daunting task, as Flash is not exactly our group's best friend. However, she is making way and is about a third of the ways done with it, which I'm quite excited to see.

3. Briefly describe how you and your partner(s) ASSISTED each other:

This week we all worked on editing our power point as a group. I was able to create a "rough draft" of the presentation then as a group we looked it over and made corrections were necessary. In addition we worked together to see who would say which slides, making sure to evenly distribute talking time.

However, aiding each other was not just limited to the classroom. At William Heise Park in Julian, we were all able to help each other in some way or another; whether it be through comfort, body heat, or even a borrowed jacket.
