Patterson Howell Log

September 4: I met with the team this week to discuss project suggestions. I caught up on details from the extra meeting on Friday. I started a personal log as well.

September 11: I completed persona for Susan Gregory, a recently retired middle school teacher who is making a return to the classroom. I met with the team about users of the application and what desired capabilities are needed.

September 19: I sketched ideas of design for the application. I implemented ideas to help follow best practices in styling elements/schemes for final design.

September 26: I designed the Sign In and Register pages for the application continuing the proper styling throughout the design. These pages ask a user to enter their information in order to begin use of the application or create an account if they are new.

October 4: I determined with others in agreement that "manual mode" was where our energy is best focused at this time which shifted requirements.
