I have set a schedule for our group but some people have failed to meet the deadlines, which is a little frustrating on my part because I want things to be done on time.
One thing that was hard is that my group was not very responsive, so when bringing up suggestions and changes, but I guess if they don’t have any additional comments it means they have to go with how I set it up. And I guess people don’t read or pay attention to my emails and texts because I keep getting questions about directions I have given out.
I was actually not that familiar with Indesign, so setting up paragraph styles took a while to figure out, but I figured it out. It was hard to estimate how long the titles were going to be for the stories, so I had to play around with that a bit. I kept messing up and missing things and I had to send a thousand emails to my group mates they probably think I am crazy. But I have to keep in mind that we are all learning and I am taking this class for the first time just like everyone else.
I had a schedule set up for the group and everything on the computer should be done by thanksgiving break, but you know not everything goes according to plan, it is half way through break and I have not received all the files. This is the most frustrating on my part because I feel like everyone would have a great break if everyone turned in their things on time, and because some people did not, I have to try to organize everything over break which I am not a fan of.
