Project Role: I held two roles on this project. As Project Manager, it was my responsibility to guide the project through it's various stages and facilitate communications between group members and the client. As Designer, it was my responsibility to create the look and feel of the website based on the client's web site needs and target market.

What I learned from the project: One of the many things I learned in this project was how to communicate effectively with others long distance. One of our group members lives out of town, and I found it a challenge to keep him up to date on the happenings of the project. We held our group meetings in an online chat environment to make sure that everyone was kept up to speed and felt part of the group.

Project Role: I made CSS stylesheet. I did content HTML code for Work in Britain pages. Helped programmer for some of the forms, and made a perl script which the site did not use.

What I learned from the project: 1)The order of process is very important For example: the tag name of CSS should definitely be wrote before the HTML coding. The HTML templet should come out before any pages. Forms should work perfectly before any customized. 2)People in the group should not use same account. Even though it is inconvinent, it prevent the confusion of modification later.

What I learned from the project: Team work on projects. Working for someone who works for the client was new. Testing more completely than ever before. Different structure for pages and sites. Input from many team members was helpful. Together we solved many problems that seperately we were just frustrated. Talking solved most problems. Remote control, Monterey County to S onoma County, can work.
