A6: Development Check-In

A6: Development Check-In#

Overview#

Every team has its ebbs and flows over the course of a project. There will be bursts of productivity where you come together as a team with clear thought and creativity to make progress. And there will be stretches of time where you are idle, stuck on a problem, or simply unable to find time to meet. Regardless of how much you have produced so far this quarter, we want to know how things are going. In addition to your mid-quarter and final reports, there will be three development check-ins this quarter. This is the first.
