I have posted to Moodle our group make up, and have posted the answers to questions 1, 2 and 3, and Wayne has posted summaries of questions 4 and 5. Just need the last two! I'll admit I'm sweating a little!

Belatedly re-reading the assignment submission page, I have realized that only I need to submit the assignment.

Quote :: Then, establish deadlines, and assign one team leader to compile and submit.

That still makes me nervous, then again, if we submit it wrong, we get a 0 anyway! So I will do the submitting!

I'm back online now, wrapping up some other homework, but still watching these forums. Just wanted to know-- Were my answers to 4 & 5 okay? And is there anything else I can do to help our group make the deadline? Shocked

Your answers were perfect as far as I could tell. A few typo's, but nothing Microsoft Word and I couldn't handle Smile

Just waiting for Tabari, who hasn't yet been online today. I'm a little worried, and unsure what to do. I'm kicking myself for not getting phone numbers at the moment!

What about mine? Everything look ok? Anything I can do to help?

Looks solid enough to me!

But I am at a loss as to what to do with a few hours to the deadline and Tabari no where around. One of us could complete his summary, but how is that fair to us? He did take part in a few of the questions, but the summary is how I was gauging participation. I could leave it blank, but I don't know if that would affect our grade.

What do you guys think?

I thought you posted some very interesting insights, and especially liked your comparing our hypothetical firm to a sports or entertainment agent. Also, your remarks about having a developer account with Apple and reinforcing ideas regarding social media and the use of smartphones really helped me with my summaries. Good job!

I guess the issue regarding question 6 would come down to how close to the deadline we're willing to get before just submitting the project. I'll probably still be up around then (still having general homework wrap-up time here). Going back over my answer to question 6, I was a bit off-topic there-- would it help if I posted a revision?

Despite the minor deviation, you still had other valid and good ideas; so no I wouldn't think it's necessary. And without the person responsible for that questions summary, it wouldn't make a difference anyway!

The real question here is, do we take up his slack, or leave his section blank if he doesn't show? I'm willing to wait until 11pm. If he's not on by then, I think it's safe to assume he won't be.

11pm as our final deadline sounds good to me. Personally, I'd lean more toward us putting together a summary with whoever's here at the time rather than leaving it blank, but that's just my opinion. Our professor didn't really mention anything specific about what to do in this sort of situation.

Sounds like a plan to me! I am honestly too wary of negatively affecting our grade to leave it blank.

So come on, Tabari! Use the Force! I mean... Forum!! Razz

On the upload portion of the Moodle, do we upload the whole assignment or just the part we did?

Admin Posts : 22 Join date : 2011-10-19

As I said earlier in this thread, I re-read the assignment submission page, and only I have to submit our compiled assignment. So don't submit anything, or it may result in a 0. (Instructor's words, not mine!)

Gotcha. Be sure to add a link to the forum here so he knows we collaborated!

From the Assignment Submission page:

Quote :: Your group will collaborate to create a single document that answers questions 1-7 on page 96 under "Collaboration Exercise 4" which starts on page 95. It is recommended that each group first determine which questions each member will be responsible for completing. Then, establish deadlines, and assign one team leader to compile and submit. Upon completion, your group leader (only the group leader) needs to post to the Discussion Thread for this unit following the instructions posted at that location.

Sorry about just logging in, had to deal with a few unexpected issues. I posted the answer to Question #7. I hope it's okay?

Posts : 16 Join date : 2011-10-21

I believe you were supposed to do question 6. It was posted which we were assigned

Admin Posts : 22 Join date : 2011-10-19

Yeah, it's okay though! There's still time to amend it! Smile
