What did you learn today?

Today we went over the layout for printing multiple deliverables on a single sheet.  For example how in which you would lay out bookmarks on a single page in order to print more to a page in order to save paper.  It is important to be very specific in the email to the printer on how many copies you would like, what paper and how it should be cut.

What challenges did you face? And how do you plan to overcome them?

Today we continued on with the group project and the issue I faced today was how in which could our app’s logo depict what the app would be used for.  That being said the original idea that we as a group had come up with was a little too “general academic” and not so much tailored specifically for the purpose of the app which is to connect City Tech students.  After discussing with the group and looking over various apps we were able to come up with a new direction for the logo and create something simple that communicates well, and works in various sizes.

In what way were you able to help each other?

We are really getting a feel for each other as a group and everyone is super eager to express their feelings and ideas which is what helps make up a strong group atmosphere.  We managed to bounce ideas off each other and end up settling on what we need for the app, as well as colors, theme, and general look and feel.  We are definitely on a roll and starting to fit into our roles that we have come up with.  I think as a whole we are a very strong team as everyone is willing to chip in and lead when necessary.
