Evidence of Work
To start off, my classmates and I made our groups for this project. I am working with Zane Walas, Simon Moattar, and Nico Hadiaris. We then set up a Gantt chart in order to keep track of when assignments are due on a website called Toggl. We also set up a canvas on the website Padlet. This will be where we brainstorm, add information that we found in research, and put our thoughts together. Next, I emailed potential mentors asking them to help us with our project. John Long is now our mentor for this project. Once we had everything set up, the next step was to create our digital logo. We called our group "Slab," and our logo is below. We then came up with a demand and wish list, which basically described everything we need our design to accomplish, and everything we hope our design can accomplish. After that, we made a survey for our potential customers asking them about what they wanted our design to be able to do and if it was even necessary. Based on the results from the survey, we updated our demand and wish list. Finally, with all of the information and brainstorming we had done so far, we wrote our project proposal.

Reflection
This has been a fairly rough start to a long project. We did not get a lot of the work in on time. However, we did finish it all in the end, and this is a long project, so we have tie to improve. Personally, I am definitely still adjusting to online school. I need to focus more and faze out the distractions in my own home. There are some factors, like wifi connection, that I cannot control, but there are also things I can control, like my work ethic, which I need to improve. Going forward, I will try to break this project up into small steps in order to focus on every piece.
