10/21/ 4:02PM Maria: I added in Katie's suggestion and changed the font and font size. However, I realized that we had to use Green and Brown because they were the colors in our logo. Unfortunately I didn't have any other ideas. Sorry guys. The SOW is now posted though in the SOW/Proposal discussion group in class.

10/21 12:35 PM Melinda : Maria and Michelle - If Maria wants to re"fine" our SOW a bit more prior to submitting that is fine with me. Maria - if you can post it prior to class tonight, that works for me. See you both then.

10/21/2009 11:17AM ** Michelle: ** No problem. Maria can you make this change while you're updating the SOW?

10/21/2009 111:11AM katie: could the middle text in the footer read, "Agency Solutions"? we already have Statement of work in the header.

10/21/2009 10:24AM ** Michelle: ** Hey Melinda, After seeing the education SOW Maria wanted to see if she could "dress" our SOW a bit more before submitting it so I think she is going to post the final here this afternoon. Not sure when you'd like to post it to the class discussion but she says she'll post it before class.

10/21/2009 9:17 AM Word 2003 version:
 * Michelle: ** Here is the final SOW with new resources added. If there aren't any further changes it ready to be download and posted to the SOW section in class Melinda[[file:AgencySolutions_SOW.docx]]

Here is the final SOW so far.

I didn't attach the pdf's and add them to the resources section yet Melinda. I'll do that first thing in the morning around 7:30am. I think I read somewhere to also include some of the links from the info page?

Here's the final for those that don't have Office 2007

Thanks for providing both versions. -christina

I finished my editing and am satisfied with the product-it's very good. - Christina.

10:20 8:14 PM Melinda: The following are some resource pages from the Orange County Commission on Aging Workshop Titled "Through the Eyes of a Senior". Please include them as resources for development of the program. These include relevant statistics and a Quiz on senior stereotypes. Thanks.



These will cert ainly add to the resources section. They are are excellent. Excellent find!-Christina

Melinda: Since the 8 PM deadline was set so we would have time to reformat into a word document and it appears we won't need that much time to convert to a word document, I propose that we extend the time until 10:30 PM (if you are finished earlier that is fine). Michelle if you can convert the document into a word file and prepare to post after 10:30 that would be good. Please post it to a location here for a final review so we can all take one last look before posting it to the class site. Also, I will be adding a resource document to the file as well. I will be scanning it in and I will probably not have it posted prior to 8:00 PM, but I will try. Thanks.

 * Michelle: **Thanks Katie for the help! Everyone, I've revised the parts in the Media section in the Google Doc according to everyone's comments/suggestions and think my section is final. Please let me know if there are any more suggestions or comments to that section.

Also, I won't be home tonight until 10pm. Since Melinda set the deadline for 8pm as having everything done, should I save the final doc as a word doc and apply the formatting template that I have to the document after 10pm tonight? Or should we all have one final look over the whole document as a whole?

10/20 11:45 a.m.
 * katie: ** hello. Michelle- I added my suggestion to the document for sectionn 5.1.

10/19 11:43pm
 * Michelle: ** I'm having some trouble with section 5.1. if anyone has any ideas or suggestions... thanks! I made a comment in that section on what I am having trouble with.

10/19 maria: I made some comments on the google doc as well...most of what I changed in the doc I did in green so that everyone else could see. (I couldn't figure out how to do track changes in the google doc...Michelle, does google doc do that?


 * Michelle: Oh yeah it tracks changes, not exactly like in word, but if you go to file->revision history You can track the changes made and made by whom there. **

10/19
 * katie: ** hello. I made comments in the google doc. they display in pink. . . .those deadlines work for me, Melinda.

Also, i have one small request: when adding comments anywhere besides this "Google Doc Status" page, could you please leave a comment on the "Home" page under the "Updates" heading? A brief update on where your comment is located would be great (or if you create a new page on wikispaces, please let us know in the "Updates" section as well). As you all know, our wikispace is growing and it is time consuming to check every page for uppates. I don't want to miss anything :-)

Melinda : Hi everyone. I made some changes on Saturday and Sunday and will be working on some more edits. At what point do we need to stop editing and pull it together for a final presentation to be posted? I think that tomorrow at 8 PM should be our deadline and we need to finalize on Wednesday. Thanks.

 * katie: ** thanks everyone. It looks like the SOW is coming together. . Yes- Maria, I will take a took at the scope section and will provide feedback on that section as well as the other sections as necessary.

I added some comments and hi lighted them iin blue and I tightened up my section.- from Christina

10/19 Thanks! :D
 * Michelle : ** Hi Ladies, I added some comment questions to the media section. If you guys could give me some feedback that would be a great help!

10/18 from Maria: Did some work on the scope section this morning. I think it still needs work though and I will probably be able to add more after other sections are tightened up....Katie, please feel free to help all you want :D

10/17

From Melinda: FYI. I tried to get into the Google Doc and it is down right now. I will try again in a few hours. Also, way to go Katie.

10/16

From Christina-Thanks to everyone for all your hard work. Kudos-Katie on your part. for my part I finally was able to find found accessible websites to our project (let me tell you they are rare). I added them to the doc with some commentary.

If you have the opportunity please look at the google doc and follow the links and let me know if I missed anything. Thank you

10/15 2:05 PM

Hi all. I saw the recommended changes in the Google Docs. Michelle and Maria thanks for catching up with Dr. A. I will start working on it when I get back Saturday morning. If we can get the changes done then, we should maybe try to email it to Dr. A on Monday. If that won't work out, at least we have the earlier feedback for updating. Great job everyone! - Melinda

Hey All, So here’s the scoop from our meeting last night with Dr. Atkinson (Maria and I caught him right after class).

Overall he said our SOW was on the right track and the bulk of the work is fine. We just need to tie our SOW together a bit more. We need to be more concise, define a few more areas, and overall make sure our whole SOW works together to inform the people who are writing the proposals what we want.

Here is what I printed and gave to him last night I’ve updated the SOW in our GoogleDocs that reflects the format of what I showed him and included the comments on what he said to us while going through the SOW and the changes he made (they are in blue). If you make changes regarding the comments, please delete the comments so we know the section has been tackled and is ok. It looks like we need to include one more section that needs to define our training target audience better than what is in our background statement.

Katie’s section was the only section he didn’t have any further suggestions on, go Katie! :D Do you think you could work on the audience section while everyone is revising theirs Katie?

I will work on my section tonight. Do you think we should try to aim for having him look over it again before Wednesday Melinda? I think the only option would be to email it to him, just don’t know if he would give it back to us in time since the SOW is due next Wed. Please let me or Maria know if you have any questions or need further elaboration on the comments he gave last night. ~Michelle

Hi guys. Just checking in. My internet connection out here has been really spotty (and that is being kind). Where we able to submit a draft to Dr. A? Please advise so when I return, I will be able jump right in with whatever needs to be done. Thanks. - Melinda

From Maria: Thanks Christina for the help below and thanks to Katie for the comment in the Google doc, and big thanks to Michelle for helping me un-confuse myself.

From Maria: The examples you added look good Christina. I did add two sentences at the beginning of your section to help "set" it up--but maybe we don't need it. Just a thought from me.

Does anyone have any suggestions for the SCOPE section? From Christina: Hi Maria I researched scope of training project(s) and this is what I found... =Design Scope= The Design Scope outlines the general aims and goals of the project design and lists the major deliverables and milestones.

So I would focus on something like,

"The scope of this training includes but is not limited to best practices in web site accessibility, necessity of adjustments / innovations, and technical training...

Hi Maria and everyone ;-) I added examples of training and surprisingly enough there are detailed resources provided by the government! Take a look at what I found on the net, you can see it in the googledoc.

From Maria: I finished what I could for the scope section... I left some questions/comments as comments in the google doc. Any help from anyone else would be most appreciated. The more I thought about scope and googled and tried to figure out what it was--the more confused I got.

In reply to Christina, it looks like you found some great examples. A question though. Should we include examples of types of senior sensitivity training? Since that is what we are asking for teams to design in the proposal? Like Dr. A's power point or something?

I can surely do that! I will add some tomorrow ;-))

From Christina: I created this page so we can discuss what we are doing in Google Docs and have email alerts as well.

It looks like we have some good things going on - I wonder if my section, the last one specific examples needs more. (I went through about 20 government Elder websites to find the most most glaring examples of inaccessibility. The Florida website was unquestionably the WORST which is surprising considering the number of older citizens here. Any way, any thoughts?
