Presentation Set Up

You are going to follow an agile process to develop your outcome. We will have two "sprints" where your product will get made, tested and then you will get feedback.

Your first feedback session will be end of week 3 or early week 4 during term 4.

Minimum Viable Product

After 4 weeks work your product shouldn't be finished but your users should be able to test it and try it out. It should be functional even if not all the features are implemented yet. This could be a paper prototype, a first level of a game, or a first edit of a video.

Development

As you work on and complete tasks you should move the task to the appropriate section.

It can also be helpful to colour code tasks for specific members or related tasks.

At the end of each sprint/checkpoint you should archive your tasks.
