Continue to organize

  • At the top of each week, make a plan for the week ahead using your calendar system.
  • Continue to assess your calendar system and time management strategies and how well they are working for you. Keep what is working. Try something new (or try the same technique in a different way) for what is not working.

Complete a revised draft proposal for your selected idea

  • Create a copy of your proposal draft, leaving the first version intact.
  • Review questions and suggestions from myself and your peers from our prior class session.
  • Modify and clarify proposal sections as needed. If any sections were incomplete, now is the time to complete them.
  • Proofread your proposal and run the spelling/grammar checker (find it under "tools" in the top menu). Double check that any URL links within your document work correctly.
  • Submit your revised proposal as a Google doc in our shared Google Drive folder, within your individual folder (check Discord for folder link and more info). Name the file "[yourName]_Proposal-v2". (For example, "AllisonB_Proposal-v2")

Continue to reach out to potential collaborators and for faculty feedback as needed

  • If you are seeking core collaborators for your project idea, you should now have these collaborations confirmed.
  • If you are seeking contributions from others with a smaller scope (for example, music contribution for a game, a small number of illustrations or assets, etc), confirm your contributors this week, or send me your pitches to submit to MTEC, ENT, and/or COMD students more broadly.
  • If you have technical questions and/or can use more guidance about any of your ideas, email faculty aligned with your project area with quick questions, or make appointments with faculty during their office hours for longer discussions.
