Capstone Progress

Hello Maroonies!

Despite not having a lot of time to work on your projects during the capstone class, many of you are making quite a bit of progress.  Well, it is time to measure that progress and to set some goals for the year.
There are a few tasks I would like you to accomplish this week and then email to me the components of the first task.

  1. What is the name of your capstone project?
  2. List the members of your team and their role in your project.
  3. How do you communicate in your team?
  4. How do you solve problems?
  5. List three goals for this year and how you plan to attain them.
  6. List three products you will create for this year.
  7. What is your mission statement?
  8. What is your vision statement?
  9. How will you measure success?
  10. Do you have a logo?  If not, try to create one.  We want a brand for you as it increases recognition of your project.

That is a lot to think about.  The key to a successful organization is the ability to work together, communicate, adapt, and plan.  Otherwise a lot of mistakes will happen again and again and you will not have the chance to learn from those mistakes.  You all have such fantastic ideas and I think  you can go quite far with them.  So let's get this capstone ball a rollin' and see some progress this year.  
Have a good evening!!!
