Proposal Rough Draft and Progress Memos

This assignment is where you and your group should have your all your information already collected and is putting it all together.  The rough draft should have almost everything written out as a report.  If you and your group used a template, like we did, it should not be hard to go back and write parts of your report.  This is simply a version that resembles the group’s final report that the professor should expect.  The professor will expect you to turn this in with a cover memo and individual progress memos as well.

We had used a template for our report.  This made it easier when each one of us had an assigned section of the report to write.  Each member just opened the template and added in their written sections.   We were also able organize all the research we had very quickly into our rough draft.  As a group, we thought it was the smartest thing to treat this rough draft as if it was our final report.  This would allow us to finish faster.  We wanted to be able to have time to get it edited and plan for the presentation to the class.  We all could not go to our professor’s office hours. One of our group members was able to take our work to office hours to get it edited.  Your group could do the same thing if not everyone is able to go see the professor for extra help.  We also finally took more advantage to in class time for help. This time we all had our individual progress edited in class and the cover memo.  We figured the person that is grading our work was probably the best person to help edit our papers. 

The cover memo and the individual memo is something you should be use to by now.  The cover memo is about the report itself.  We talked about our audience and what we actually have in our rough draft.  You and your group will be able to actually use answers from the other memos that answered the same questions as this one.  My group just rewrote the answers to the same questions as in our previous memo.  This saved a lot of time and stress.  The individual memo at in this assignment is another chance for any member to voice their concerns about the report our group itself.  After you finish this assignment, you are very close to the end.
