ePet History

Finishing our NeoPet video from yesterday.

neopets-p2.mp4

Yesterday, you should have broken down your project into smaller more workable chunks, something that looks maybe someting like this.

Task, part 1

Yesterday, you should have made a decomposition / task breakdown chart. You will need to refer to it for today's task.

Today, take that chart and look at the schedule for when we come back from Thanksgiving break. Most of that time will be work time for your project. Plan out when you think you'll do which parts of your project.

There's not a specific way to do this; you can draw it out, you can make a list, you could use your Google Calendar (in Drive/Gmail), you could use the Apple Calendar on the computer. How you plan it out is up to you- I just want to see you have a plan.

Keep in mind that the week of 16-20 is finals.
You will have a practice final to do on one of those days; I'll let you choose which day.

What's going to be on the final?

Examples for a project making a baby Godzilla e-pet:
either of these would be perfectly fine ways to plan out my schedule for our two weeks back.
