Group 5: Chris, Deniel, Derrick, Lian
Progress Report:
During the past week our group had to gather information for the group project from multiple sources. To work in collaboration we had to first divide the work into simpler tasks to
get the job done starting with two annotated bibliographies per person. Chris researched other university’s computer clubs and compared them to City Tech’s current computer club to learn
how other computer clubs operate and to gain information on ways that can possibly benefit City Tech’s computer club. Deniel’s research was based off other CUNY colleges to learn more
about the hardware and software that are provided for the students, this is useful to determine if there are common problems between the CUNY colleges and the ways they address issues.
Derrick researched on the CUNY bylaws, this benefits our project because it teaches us what is acceptable to do as a student in CUNY and how can it either help work for the students or
against them. As for Lian he gathered information about City Tech’s own computer club by getting in contact, via email, with people associated with the club. This is beneficial to the
project because it allows us to learn more about the computer club’s current status in various ways. The group meetings took place at 4:30pm to 6:30pm at the college library on Fridays and
a skype session on Saturday around 2pm to 3pm, during this time as a group we brainstormed for ideas and shared suggestions on how to forward our project. Other than the meeting days, information was shared via email and text message to keep everyone up to date on the project’s current status.
