Comment number 1, made on Benjamin’s blog: https://squigglezone.wordpress.com/2018/02/08/pixel-art-and-pre-production/
Hi Benjamin! (A bit late comment here, but I have some thoughts on your post.)
Very interesting post you’ve written. It’s always fun to read up on the different ways groups work and plan out their process. It seems that your group had a very clear vision of what you wanted to create together; that is super useful and enables faster workflow. Your structure in this post is great, very easy to follow […]

Blog Post Comment 3 – Therese Carlsund

Hi Therese!
Let me start off with saying that your post clearly describes the what, how and why. You describe Scrum and its different aspects in a clear and relevant way, and you also describe the process of working with Scrum clearly. I think your analysis is good overall, in that you list what has worked better and worse with the method. (On a side note, our group has also had issues with the time estimation, especially us […]

Week 3 feedback

Good afternoon, or whenever Felix. This was quite the intro perspective read. How you described the general work process of your group and your own workflow was all very easy to digest. Your description of the group dynamic gave me a good overview of your relation to one another and the project – without going into too much details.
 
I think that you like many other (me included) don’t have a real good grasp of how SCRUM works, […]

Blog Post Comment 2 – Anders Kemppainen

Link to the post: https://andersdotgames.wordpress.com/2018/02/15/presentations-where-i-wanna-be/

Hi Anders! I will critique your blog post today.
Let me start with saying that your text clearly conveys which artifact you have decided to reflect upon.
Furthermore, I think you clearly display your thought process while creating the presentation. You bring up the different pros and cons of using different presentation programs and why you ended up choosing the one you did use in the end. It was also interesting to read your thought process behind the visual […]

Teachers, Look This Way!

Since I have received ‘incomplete’ on the Student Portal for some reason, in this post, you will find my comments and their corresponding links

Post #1:
“Good to hear you´re feeling better now! It´s just that time of the year.
The harpoon looks fitting for the visual style of the game and the feeling. Not very dangerous-looking, but for this concept I think that´s the right way to go.
I think it´s clear what you did, and why, but […]

COMMENT 3     27/02/2017
Hi. I am not very interested in learning project management methods, but I do realise that it is important to know at least one that works if you are trying to finish a bigger project. I get a feeling that you feel about the same about scrum as me; you are mostly interested in the practicality of it. I agree that learning scrum is best by using it and working with it, and you really see the […]

My Feedback for Post #3

The third week I commented on Michael Degirmen’s blog, found here:   https://michaeldegirmen.wordpress.com/2018/02/22/scrum-learning-iteratively/
My comment was as follows:
Hey!
As a project management student I can definitely relate to what you have described in the post (sadly). I think you’ve provided an important point of view on the difficulties we’ve all faced during this project and it serves as a good introduction to the topic of the post. It really seems like you have been dealt a rough hand, indeed, but it also appears you have […]

My Feedback for Post #2

For the second week, I commented on Mija Causey’s blog, found here:  https://flytrapblog861090001.wordpress.com/2018/02/15/dear-diary-this-week-blog-2/
My comment was as follows:
Hey! You’ve written a nice post about an important subject, and apart from some grammatical errors, I believe you have done a good job of explaining what you have done, how you did it as well as why you did it. The text could have a better flow in order for the reader to have an easier time following along, but overall […]

Blog comment 3

If I understood everything correct, your group is not working with scrum. You explain why you do not work with scrum but you don’t really explain how you are working. It would be very interesting to know how you guys are working instead. Do you still use the product backlog? Do you have sprint meetings? I would like to know more about how you are handling the project management. How has working like this worked for your group?
I fully understand […]

The first week I commented on Edvin Broberg’s blog post, which can be found here:  https://ettin2017pm.wordpress.com/2018/02/08/organizing-stand-up-meetings/
My comment was as follows:
This post gives an interesting insight to a vital part of the project as a whole, and is in my opinion delivered with good fluidity and structure. As I began reading I thought that the text didn’t flow very well, but that was pretty much contained to the first paragraph. I found the post to contain some repetitive wording, […]

Hello Niklas! I think your post is simple but efficient in terms of explaining how you have worked with Scrum in your group. You rarely go into detail but you still explain the process at a high level throroughly. However, I definitely think the text could have been a bit longer. Since so much focus is on the product backlog, a lot of other details that could have been interesting are not present. I think […]

Hi Alexander! I am happy that I am the one who is tasked with reviewing this blog. I was a part of the second to last group to present, so I can definitely relate to much of what you wrote. I am however not content with my own performance, since I thought I wouldn’t be able to deal with the pressure of presenting to so many people in English. I was like you nervous so […]
