Problem Solving class 11/12/2013

Hi all,

due to a scheduling error on my behalf, there will be no Problem Solving class today. So I just wanted to thank everyone for their participation in the module.

 In terms of submitting your portfolios:

If you want to drop off a hard copy today, I am in the Blueroom doing demos all day, but pop in at 12:45 or 3:30 and I can take them. The Blueroom is located on the fourth floor of the Main Kevin Street building in the staff canteen, take the lift up the the fourth floor and it's on your right.

If you are submitting in January, please send me everything you have electronically by Jan 1st, and drop in a hardcopy by Jan 10th, drop it off in A324 or let me know when you are in and I'll pick it up.

You need everything on this page:
http://www.comp.dit.ie/dgordon/Courses/PSIC/index2013-2014Fulltime.html

If you weren't in the week we did the User Engagement Toolkit (full list of people below), please email me a 2 minute video (using your smartphone or laptop) of you discussing the creative person you selected.

Finally any feedback you have on the module would be very welcome,

best,

Damian
