Week 13

During the week we mainly focused on practicing the presentation for the final milestone. Additionally, I helped make sure that all of the appendices in the team report matched up correctly.

On Wednesday we ran the presentation in front of Amanda and Claire, who gave some feedback on it, but overall was good. We delivered the presentation on Thursday to the supervisors, which I thought went well.

Over the next week we will check through the final report before printing it, with the rest of the work focusing on completing the individual report

Week 12

As before, the focus of this week was to continue working on the final team report. I helped Nick create the figures and table list for the contents page, and also put the Appendix together, with feedback from the team discussing what should go in. In addition to this, I was also given slides on the milestone 4 presentation to begin practicing on, which includes the analysis section.

Week 11

This week we focused on finishing the draft version of the Team report, and had some feedback from Steve concerning section 7 and 8. Afterwards I helped Nick by adjusting some of the graphs in those sections.

On Wednesday, Claire and Amanda gave some pointers on how to write the individual report. On Thursday the external examiner visited the teams, and asked us questions on the project such as what the project was, what we were interested in and what we felt we had contributed. Overall I thought it could have gone better as I might not have given the impression on how much work had been done.

Week 10

During the second week of the Easter break, I focused on writing section 7, Analysis of results for the final report. Once done, and after I had gotten feedback from other team-members, I wrote section 8.1 of the critical assessment.

During this week I helped proof-read and work to finish the first draft of the team report.
