Jack Waterkamp Case Study Discussion Summation

December 2014. I was responsible for the final reflection/ summation of our Case Study facilitation. I created a Prezi to show an overview of our project. My teammates filled in their own information for Things We Would Change and Final Reflections. I am including a link to the Prezi as well, so that you can play Nicole's introduction video and self-pace the presentation if you wish to. I know the music may violate Mayer's Coherence principle, but, I used it for a reason. There was so much information to present, and it was most critical that users be engaged throughout the video (at least the first time through), so I used music I thought might capture and keep attention.
