# Milestones 

Created 08/07/21.

I think in the proposal we aim to deliver this course in November.

- Resources ([forecast](https://forecastapp.com/974183/schedule/projects?filter=course&startDate=2021-07-12)): 
    - **M1**
        - Greg@4, 19/07/21->15/08/21
        - Fede@3.6, 02/08/21->15/08/21
    - **M2**
        - James & Jack@22 days as and when (started April and planned to finish by September).
    - **M3&4**
        - Camila@3.2, 05/07/21->29/07/21 (8wks); 
        - Callum@4, 05/07/21->15/08/21 (6wks).
        - Realistically that gives us 5 weeks of module building since we are almost at the end of the week 05/07/21.
    - **Throughout**
        - Kasra@0.4
        - Greg up to @0.4 from his EDI allocation


Modules will be really difficult to develop when the chunky allocations expire. Since most allocations end 15/08/21, I propose aiming for draft development complete by 08/08/21 to give us a week buffer. 

We focus here on milestones relating to module development. There are other project milestones (e.g. advertising, selection) that will also take time.


- **Dev pre-reqs**
    - [x]  Dataset
    - [ ]  Research Question
        - [ ] Read papers around a RQ
        - [ ] Get together and tailor RQ to course

- **Module milestones**:
    - Module syllabus sketches, includes: (depencies: dataset and RQ)
        - reading around the subject
        - sketch out taught section
        - sketch hands-on section

    - Review with project collaborators to align module draft with other modules (depencies: syllabus for other modules complete).
    
    - Draft taught material
    - Draft hands-on material
    - Peer Review by project collaborators.
    - Iterate 
    - Test on REG 
    - Iterate .
