Remember the Saturday Presentation Format

Hi Barton Springs, It will be great to see you again. Just a quick reminder that your project update will be on Saturday morning. Let me know if you need anything. Linda Your delivery will still be capped at five (5) minutes. Given the quantity of information to be shared, you may need to prepare to use the entire allotted time. Here are the items to be covered in the project status presentation: o The name of the cohort group o Your name (presenter) and the name of each of your cohorts o A brief description of the project and the resulting product o Goals that were set last month or before, that were expected to be met by this time o Goals that have actually been met as of today o The estimated percent of tasks completed toward the project product o Changes in project scope that have occurred since last month o What will you accomplish by next month’s status update.

Happy New Year

Dear Barton Springs, The subject for the January class will be Solving Problems: Decision Making and Project Management; and Managing Information and Optimizing Use of Technology. The instructors will be Don and Silona Bonewald. Some meat will be put on the scant bones of project planning, execution and management that has been presented so far. I apologize, but I will not be able to attend this week. You are obviously in good hands -- and I know Don will share the classroom experience with me. Now that holidays are behind us, we can, hopefully, stay in closer contact between sessions. Please let me know what I can do to help your projects, and even if you are doing swimmingly, please send updates. Best, Linda
