Project Journal Week 23

Monday

The meeting on Monday was mainly involved around two things. Firstly we set the agenda for the week about scheduling when to come in and when to book rooms etc, and the second half was having a quick read of each of the members sections they had completed for the write-up.

Tuesday

The day was again split into two, with the editors of the final document, Matt and Nick, highlighting areas in each individuals section that needed amending. The second part was spent testing subjects. Today was the first day the team starting encountering problems with testing, such as unable to book rooms , or test participants. Despite this we managed to obtain 7 subjects during the day.

Thursday

The meeting with the supervisors was very short due to the simplicity of the tasks we were undertaking, which are testing and report writing. The only point raised was about the stat analysis we were doing on our results, which Andrew told us about a few books in the library that could help.

Friday

The team spent the whole day testing . We struggled to get a room again in the morning, but after speaking to Andrew Williams, we had the room d204 up until 12 o clock. We also struggled to obtain test subjects but in the afternoon things ran very smoothly, and managed to obtain 22 subjects after moving to the room d108.

I felt this week the team made some great progress towards reaching the hundred subjects and as Milestone Manager I tried to make sure that each member had roughly the same amount of time testing subjects, as recoding the data is very boring. I also tried to make sure that I did as much testing as possible when compared to my team members, as my role of MM to me dictates that I should take more responsibility during the milestone, so during the week and particularly on Friday, I spent a significant amount of time testing.
