Project Personnel (HU3910 with Prof. Burton)
Please read this entire page!
1. How to Sign Up for a Project Team
Assuming you've already registered for HU3910:
- Decide on a 1) project from this page, and 2) a specific task as defined on that project's page
- Click here to add your name to one of the projects on the Project Personnel page. If you are torn between a few projects, choose one that has fewer names beneath it.
- Put your name in the Name field for now, and, later on after you've met with your team and discussed tasks, put your name in the Task field.
- Sign up for a GitLab Account on our internal repository: https://arcgit.wpi.edu
- Request access to the Git Repositories for this project using the URLs on the project's Wiki page (on this site).
2. What to Do After You Sign Up
- Get to know your teammates
- What is their favorite food?
- What is their favorite movie?
- How do they feel about Taylor Swift?
- Decide on a 'regular weekly meeting time outside of class time to discuss weekly goals and objectives
- If you're the only "morning person" in a group of "night owls", choose a different project--seriously
- Start digging into your project--acclimate yourself to the subject area and start looking at list of books currently being held at the Gordon library.
- Meet a few times a week to discuss the division of labor of tasks, otherwise work independently and work hard. I'm expecting about 15 - 17 hours of work each week for each team member.
You have brief summaries of your progress due on Canvas every few days, so read the Syllabus on Canvas.
