the CreateShiftTemplate page of the UI.

want to layout the components of the EditKey dialog box.
Poor: I also helped to restructure the user interface
prototype
Poor: Made modifications to UI prototype
Better: I editted the menu bar on the main screen of the UI so
the items are consistent with Windows standard.
Poor: I also was able to help the team come to conclusive
decisions regarding the specific GUI for the program that we are
designing.
Better: I participated in a team discussion debating various UI
styles. We decided a command line interface would be best for our
product and I served as recorder and wrote the list of commands
we decided to use.
Poor: Materialized some concepts for the storyboard and
program in general including color options and icons.
Better: I decided what color scheme to use for our UI background,
menus, and windows. I added this description as a footnote in our
UI prototype.

that counts to 100.

of and added it to the part written by a fellow group member
Better: I wrote the user manual section for SelectAvailableHours
and appended it to the HTML document Sally had posted on our team
web page.

Better: I evaluated several PC version control software tools and
selected the PCVS tool for our team. I wrote a paragraph of
download and installation instructions and emailed all the team
members.
Poor: We have started preliminary planning on an idea of a
second working prototype designed by ouir designer.
Better: Jack and I wrote a half page list of ideas we want to
incorporate into the second version of our prototype.

Completed rough draft of user interface.(Sketched the
storyboard).
Attended 10/4 team meeting, participated in sketching of
preliminary stroyboard and created dialogue boxes.
Critique: Because both of these reports are vague, it sounds like two students are taking credit for accomplishing the same task (sketching the storyboard).
