All Set and Moving Forward

I turned in my grading presentation yesterday morning and was so excited to be wrapping up my semester and my master’s degree!!

(as an aside, if you login to chzmongr.com and experience an Ajax error when rating a cheese, please wait 15 minutes or so, without logging out or back in, and the error generally resolves itself - I cannot explain this error)

You can see my presentation at the link above. So, what’s happening now?!? What did I learn? And Jen’s questions -- Project reflection: what would you do the same or differently working on this project again? Weekend reflection: what did you think of the capstone weekend? What did you learn from the feedback given and received?

Ok, I learned I am not a hardcore Drupal developer; I think that’s obvious. But I learned that I was successful in changing the user interface to provide users with a better experience and that was really the whole point of my chzmongr project so => SUCCESS! If I was going to start all over with this project, I would a) begin w/ Drupal 7 and not waste weeks struggling w/ Drupal 8; b) hire a developer to assist with the Drupal implementation; and c) try to sneak in one more round of user testing. I do plan on continuing to evaluate if Chzmongr can be a “real” project and am scheduling meetings with a consultant and a couple of developers for January. :) Very exciting!

What about capstone weekend? I loved it. It was so amazing to see everyone’s projects. Since we did two rounds of peer reviews, I had an idea of what some of my classmates were working on, but seeing everyone present and sharing time together was awesome! The class was organized and led to allow us all to be there and provide positive reinforcement and encouragement to one another as we tackled very large projects. It was very meaningful to then be able to see the final results for each person.

And what else? Well, I’ve given notice at my job and will be leaving as of Dec. 31! This will give me time to explore my career options and the future of chzmongr in 2018. I hope to land a role working with a team and improving user experiences and look forward to getting started on this new chapter of my life!
