PDR peer review and report (10/16/20)

This week involved a lot of hard work from each member of the team. Starting from the past weekend each member began working on splitting up the requirements for the PDR presentation. Each member finished their part, added it to the team slideshow, and rehearsed their part. This was all in preparation for the peer review. The feedback gained from the peer review was extremely helpful in perfecting the presentation for the sponsor. Our main criticism was that our slides were too crowder, and the pictures were low quality. We promptly went in and revised our parts by adding highlights to the main points, reduced the amount of words on each slide, imported higher quality images, split up crowded slides, and added animations to improve the watching experience. We are quite proud of our new presentation, and we will begin practicing together this weekend. We were also able to schedule a meeting time with the sponsor company to present to them.

Our other main priority this week was creating the PDR report. This report is the culmination of all of our work so far this semester. Again, each team member was in charge of different parts, and once we completed each part we would combine it into a main document. However, this wasn’t enough to ensure that the report flowed well. Once all of the components of the report were added, we read over the report and fixed grammer and spelling issues as well as reorderd the structure so that it flowed better.

For the next week we wil continue to practice the presentation. We want to make sure that the sponsor company can rely on us to deliver high quality work. We will also continue to work on learning React Native and finalizing the weather API we will go with. At this point, we will begin developing a functional prototype for the end of the semester.
