Monday September 23: I finished the model and rationale report. We held a team meeting with the teachers about the direction of the project based on the models. The group realized we need to collaborate more on how everything is going to work together.

Thursday September 26: I presented my initial progress update and started the presentation evaluation. During my presentation some of my visuals failed to upload so I am finding out why that happened. My teachers brought some points to my attention regarding testing and my designs that I plan on researching further.
