Project Direction

Hi class - thought I would start a little discussion on the current standing of some of our projects. Let's all chip in and help each other find their way in this class.
Here goes:
Wanted to clarify.. will our groups be given more direction from Dr. Price at the end of the week regarding our project details?? Also, am I correct that we need to rank our 15 plus logos in order of preference and submit to Dr. Price this week? I have created a link and spreadsheet to work from; however, I am not stuck on this method, there may be a better way to tally votes. Any suggestions? If this is something that we need to complete, what is the best and most efficient way to communicate with students in the class about the ranking sheet?

Finally, would it be good for us to post screen captures of the UA web templates available so that we can choose as a class which to use for the projects OR are we going to do that in our individual groups? I am going to move the link to the logo ranking to the front page for easy access.

Let's do this together. Post your thoughts and suggestions here.

Class,

Based on the Collaboration Life-Cycle from CSM564 I think it's very important that we get to know each other to best accomplish the task that we have ahead of us.

As part of the project layout I've added an About Me page that could be very important in creating the best environment to successfully complete this task.

UA Web Templates

Hey guys. I have been looking at the UA Web templates , I like the two column, left navigation layout. Not sure how much info we will need to put, which would determine if we need a horizontal navigation. Also, we need to design logos. Adobe offers a free 30 day download for Photoshop which can be used to make a logo. Any ideas on a title for this financial planning materials for middle school teachers and students...

Delicious

Hi all! I have seen the delicious account set up by Omer - csm566v10; however, I am not certain I know how to save tags/bookmarks to this account. When I try to save it goes directly to my account. I have tagged a couple using "webpresence" and "vacationrentals" and then sent those to csm566v10, but they didn't show up. Any suggestions? Or are we just supposed to use a tag csm566v10?
