I got to talk with one of the Byte Club officers regarding the production of the app during the week, and I think that the key to our success throughout the rest of the app creation is communication. We all have very good ideas and we all have our own doubts, but when we get talking with each other, we motivate ourselves and each other and help to clear up confusion. Just meeting with one club member for a period was enough to get me excited about making the app again. I think that if we meet more often during the development process, we will be more excited to make the app and the app will consequently be finished quicker and be a better quality app.
We also went to one of the elementary schools in our district to manually install some necessary software into the labs and laptop carts in the school. Though a little monotonous, it was a nice break from thinking about app development all of the time.
On Wednesday, we held another Byte Club meeting with the entire club instead of just the app development team. A template for a Software Design Document was distributed, and the teams had the rest of the meeting to work on the design document (due next Friday) and their projects themselves if they could finish the document. Most of the groups got a good start on what they needed to do. I've also assigned someone from each group to post updates on the Byte Club blog about the progression of their projects to be used as a reference for club members in the future, and to ensure that work is being done by the groups. The app team did not get to meet at all during this period, though, as most of us are officers of the club and are overseeing and troubleshooting the projects of the other groups.
