Accepted

We have been accepted to the Grace Hopper poster session in September.  Although this is exciting it has added a few things to our to-do list.  We have to submit bios and pictures of all of us, a 700 word abstract, and the poster must be re-designed (the old one is too big). 
Last week we started on our new how-to videos and test your skill games.  Our work has been a little impeded by the ever changing weather which has gotten a few of us sick and slowed us down a little.  With everyone on the mend we should be able to catch everything up and hopefully submit all the needed info for Grace Hopper this week.

Welcome to Summer...

Over the last week we have...finished classifying the April bugs, created a schedule for the summer, updated the website, and finished our Grace Hopper scholarship applications.  This summer we will each be making one how to movie and one Flash game per week, creating practice problems, and making new posters.

End of the Semester Countdown

With only a couple of days left we are about to hit the research grant full time next week.  Today we will be meeting with some of the CS faculty to get ideas about games and how to videos we could work on this summer.  Most of the last week has been spent finishing final projects and studying for/taking finals.  We have all been working on our scholarship applications for the Grace Hopper conference this fall.  We've also been on the hunt for the bug that is stopping us from uploading Camtasia videos.  By next week the website should be fully functioning and we should have a whole pile of new ideas to fill our website with this summer.
