Group Meeting #7

Everyone is present except Peiyi. We have gathered together and critiqued all our individual tasks from the previous week and also emailed them to Ashleigh so they can all be merged together into a article for the magazine. The task we were assigned was attractions and events around the UK, this being the last activity for information for the magazine. Our next step will be working out the overall design of the magazine using Microsoft Publisher. After our meeting today we won't see each other for two weeks as it is Polytech holidays. Throughout the holidays we will be communicating with each other and finishing the work we critiqued at this meeting. 

Ashleigh - 10 attractions in London

Holly - 5 attractions in Northern Ireland and 4 Sporting attractions

Fiona - 5 attractions in Wales and Scotland

Tresha - 5 attractions in Eire and 6 other attractions

Peiyi - 10 attractions in England (to be confirmed)

Group Meeting #6

Today in class Ashleigh, Fiona and Peiyi were present. Ashleigh allocated the final tasks on attractions and events and emailed them to everyone. We also looked at travel brochures on the UK and discussed ideas for layout. We will group the attractions and information by country, Scotland, England etc rather than all attractions together then all the accommodation as we think this will be easier for the reader.

We will continue critiquing each other’s work this week and doing our assigned tasks. We are also deciding what articles we will add to to turn into feature articles. 

Group Meeting #5

All present except Peiyi, she put in apologies. Today we are editing and critiquing the work we have done so far and checking that everything is up to date. Everyone looked through each other’s work and gave their opinions and improvements. We are still waiting for tasks from Peiyi so we couldn’t edit everything. 

Group Meeting #4

Meeting during class, present Holly, Ashleigh and Fiona. Tresha is working and Peiyi is sick. We allocated tasks for the travel information section of our magazine. Holly has emailed Peiyi and will tell Tresha so they know what they have to do. We have scheduled a meeting for next week where we will go over this weeks tasks and read through previous sections to check the writing. We will also start looking at the layout for the magazine.

Group Guidelines

We’ve made a few guidelines for our group:

• Everyone needs to turn up for meetings or let the group know in advance if you can’t and why. 
• Everyone completes their individual tasks for the next group meeting.
• Don’t be afraid to critique and offer constructive criticism for each others work.
• Everyone participates and don’t leave it to one person.

Goals:

• Complete the weekly tasks
• Have a magazine that we are all happy with at the end!
