Sample Projects: Roy Summerville's Can-Do project
Roy Summerville is responsible for finding an aircraft for a potential customer, a Canadian Doo Wop music group. He created a project environment for his "Can-Do" project, which he shares with other members of his team.
Stage 1: Organizing the environment
Roy started by setting up a plan for his Can-Do project:
Based on the plan, this is the project conference he created.
He has created a conference structure that allows his team to:
• showcase the final product in a conference called Presentation.
Stage 2: Scheduling
The team uses their personal calendars to schedule meetings and milestones.
Stage 3: Conducting meetings
The team uses instant messaging to hold meetings when they can't get together. Here is an online meeting they held recently.
Roy compiles the minutes into a FirstClass document.
Stage 4: Brainstorming
The team uses the Ideas conference to communicate with each other when they are in different locations. If somebody has an idea, they post it there and others can comment on it and build on it.
Stage 5: Managing tasks
Roy uses his calendar to manage the details of each task.
Stage 6: Collecting information
As Roy and his team collect information, they enter their notes into FirstClass documents and store them in the Resources folder or the Graphics folder.
Stage 7: Compiling the project
Roy and his team use the Presentation conference to put the final project together. Here is a look at some material from the compiled project.
Stage 8: Presenting the final project
Here are a couple of slides from the presentation.
