Makerspace at the Fulton School
The portion of our project that I contributed to was focused on the personal profiles of each student as well as on creating our presentation video.
The first step was to confirm that it was okay to share student information throughout the directory as well as with incoming students. Once this was approved, a form was needed to collect student information in an organized fashion. This form also served as the first exposure to our student body to inform them of our project. This form included the following questions: name, nickname, age, birthday, interests, and bio. The age and birthday portion were not received correctly and therefore weren’t included in all the profiles.
Once we had received answers, the data was transferred into our file of code designated for the profiles. Coping all the information was tedious but one of the simplest aspects of our project. I created a GitHub repository for our project so that each coder could work on individual tasks at the same time. https://github.com/leonard4589/Fulton-Icebreaker.git
After the profiles were completed, I was tasked with creating our presentation video for the WWT competition. Communicating during spring break was challenging due to everyone’s different schedules and preferred form of communication. Eventually, all sub videos were submitted to be edited and combined to create our presentation. I attended a few meetings to learn more about the video-making process and was able to create the video in a few days. The challenge was that the video had a 5 min cut-off in order to submit. This required different methods and multiple hours to downsize the video while maintaining its original unique quality.
Overall I was impressed by what we accomplished as a group in four weeks and am interested to see how our directory advances.
