Group project Planning

Today the teachers told us something that was crucial to our group project and it was planning. If you don't plan properly the finally product's quality will be effected. For the web page and interactive power points, smart ideas and its mind web will be effieceint, we can put notes on a idea box so lets say its a link to a web page or slide of you advertisments, you have ideas on what it will be like so you make a note on that box which represents the page, on this note this may include things like what will you put on this page or slide. To improve your knowledge of smart ideas, you can just use quick box, so you can make a box imediatley without wasting alot of time making boxes individually. If you think notes help wait till you see leveling. Right click and click on level, thant a new mindweb will pop up and it will be a secondary one, dont wory when you click on go to main it will go back to your original mind web, when you linked it to a box that means that that web is about this page or slide and you should put every one of your ideas for this page on it, this is even better that the notes but its your choice to choose which ever one you want they both work. When you go to the global option you will get too see all the levels, so what level is connected to what.

The 2 ways to explain what each webpage and slide is about and what does it contain

Notes:
-Fast
-Easy make and read
-Less work
This explains in lettle depth but it is useful

Level:
-in depth explaination
-more details
-gives people an outline of what should they put on their page, very useful to ESL's
Lots of work.

For the video the only time you choose to use the smart ideas is when you are making an interactive video so you watch a clip, and you choose what clip to watch next. But since videos are always moving and you cannot change its direction there wont be many ideas to split so its very hard to make a good plan unless its an interactive video. I highly suggest you use the story borad, manufactured for videos. Even Holleywood videos use this to plan. This is where you highlight the main parts of the video, so you draw a picture in a box and write in detail about what main part does that box regresent. You should only use this for videos and use smart ideas for the other two projects it is better.
