*Accomplishments (what did we accomplish in the last period?)
- Formulated questions for MIT survey
- Publicized survey through MIT Home Spotlight, IS Spotlight, mail lists,
Tech Talk ad, ITPartners meeting
- Administered survey
- Collected data
- Formulated questions for Common Solutions Group
- Sent questions out. Very little response, but indications are that
ours is the most comprehensive investigation
- Began planning focus groups for faculty, DLC support providers,
students, administrative staff
*Goals (What are we planning to accomplish in the next period?)
- Scan news groups, business news, vendor information to determine
market trends
- Conduct focus groups mentioned above
- Complete data analysis of MIT survey
- Begin circulating data to interested IS teams
- Consult Network Security on relevant issues
* Next Community Milestone
- Focus groups during 2nd and 3rd weeks of June
*Have there been any developments that may impact the scope or schedule?
- Focus groups won't be completed until late June, so our picture of
support requirements will be delayed by a couple of weeks. It should
be possible to compensate elsewhere in the schedule, though.
*Do we need any additional information from the client, stakeholders, sponsor?
*Issues/Key Learnings
*Team Dynamics
- Interest and participation level remain high. It's a great team.
