15/5s - Week of April 25 through May 2, 2016

This week we finalized the Treatment report,  worked on SME and one on one formative evaluations. I received a lot of good recommendation for improvement from our SME. Also conducted one on one evaluation at Terminix site. It is a great and humbling experience to understand our own product from the client and users' prospective. While we learned about a lot of room for improvement, we believe we developed a great learning module with is a short period of time. Most of the finding were cosmetic and Jennifer spent a lot of time to fix the issues. We documented all the observation with references and reasoning; and suggested a proposed solution for each of the observations. Improve is a journey, not a destination.

Google hangout are becoming extremely valuable in sharing ideas and building consensus; besides that document sharing feature is helping us a lot to complement our discussion in a more efficient and effective way. Asking questions and learning from the peers and Dr. Weaver is a unique and enlightening experience. I am learning a lot of different perspectives by watching the screen casts from my peers. These resources are continuously helping me to think hard and understand new dimensions of any task at hand. Finally, watching Dr. Weaver’s screen cast provides a clear guideline on how to deal with so many moving parts without getting overwhelmed. I would like to apply the techniques I am learning from Dr. Weaver and my teammates to utilize in my future teaching profession.

Learning project management process and learning how to work successfully in team set up are two of the essential skill sets for any profession. To master these skill set one needs both pedagogical backbone and practical experiences. I am seeing progress from both of these ends slowly but steadily! Finally, learning is a continuous journey, not the destination!
