March 30: Progress Update and Weekly Plan

We met in order to regroup after break and share our progress. Production is in full swing! We are in the middle of writing text and creating graphics, as well as figuring out how to do the scripting for our interactive sections. In order to be more productive this week, we broke down into subgroups, listing our project goals for the week and organizing subgroup meetings so that the people responsible for accomplishing each goal could meet without taking time from those who are not involved.

So: our subgroup meetings for the week. Our writer and floater/editor are meeting to edit what's already been written and talk about how to do the rest. Our writer and graphic designer are meeting to discuss what graphics are needed to illustrate each section, our floater and scripter are meeting to talk about how to create the test, and our scripter and designer are meeting to discuss how to create the interactive graphics. Additionally, we will spend time this week doing research to fill in information gaps (we need newsgroup info!), and working on the theme story (getting a newsgroup and webpage, or starting to create our own).

We will meet again as a full group at the end of the week to regroup, share progress, and create a list of goals for the following week.
