Think I'm still on track with the weeks... I hope.
Just picked up some new content from HACER. Haven't had a chance to look at it yet because I've got a million and five other things to do, but I have confidence that Alyssa has things under control. They really have been good clients.
I've been coding coding and have all the pages but Contact and the individual Publications pages finished. My goal is to be done by Monday. It's gonna be hard work, but I can do it!
Saw Jeff Coffey last night at the Ignite Minneapolis / MIMA Spring Social and talked about how much his UCON class a year ago has helped me since. It's serious been one of the most practically useful classes I've taken. Learning about web design workflow and all involved was a really good primer for this challenge. It has allowed me to attempt to focus more on my skills as a leader and project manager than at trying to learn how to design, text, and develop a site. I can already think as a web person, but I've been trying to expand my thought process as a leader.
I've been trying really hard. Is it working? Maybe? Amy has become very motivated, but whether it is partly because of my input is debatable. I think she is just a hard worker and cares. I'm not exactly sure how to approach engaging Barbara at this point. I feel like she wants to do well, but is too distracted by other things in her life to really immerse herself in the project. Ivona has been taking some great pictures lately, so I just hope that she is enjoying what she is doing. I do wish I was getting larger amounts of results, but I can tell she is trying. I don't always get decent feedback when I ask about how things are going for everyone. Maybe I should start reading their blogs for clues... Duh! Why didn't I think of that before?
Conclusions:
> Read group member's blogs for insight into how to bring their interests into the project.
> Get the Vis. program to develop a system of pre-recs.
