 Team Video: Drone Delivery Technology

General Audience: https://youtu.be/DTrd9qXZAWg

Part 1: Video Reviews

Group 8

1. is the topic well covered? 

Good breadth in both videos, but since we did cover ethical frameworks well in CST 300 I would have liked to see some more arguments in that style.

2. is the presentation clear?

Both presentations communicated the problem of ethical issues of AI at war clearly.

3. how is the quality of the research?

No references cited. No discussion of different ethical frameworks.

4. how is the quality of the video production?

Great use of video production tools.

5. is the video engaging and interesting?

The GA video was unsettling. The music was upbeat and didn't really align with the topic of AI killing people.

6. is the team work evident?

Could not tell who from the team did what since it was AI narrated and no video of the individuals. I didn't even see team member names.

7. is the video appropriate to the audience (either general public or technology professionals)

Group 7


1. is the topic well covered? 

Very well. The interview style was good at getting everyone's thoughts.

2. is the presentation clear?

Pretty clear. There were a lot of visuals in the pro video that did not add information though.

3. how is the quality of the research?

High quality. In-video citations and references card at the end.

4. how is the quality of the video production?

Top notch. No notes. Please teach me.

5. is the video engaging and interesting?

The GA video is outstanding. I love the intro style illustrating short attention spans. I was hooked. I would have liked a little faster pace on the professional video.

6. is the team work evident?

Super evident, right from the start. The team interview process is a good idea.

7. is the video appropriate to the audience (either general public or technology professionals)

The GP video was a little above the target of a 5th grader. The professional video was targeted at young adults.

CyberOtters

1. is the topic well covered? 

Well covered in depth and breadth of sub-topics.

2. is the presentation clear?

Very clearly presented in both videos.

3. how is the quality of the research?

High quality research material but no references.

4. how is the quality of the video production?

5. is the video engaging and interesting?

Very easy to follow and good information shared.

6. is the team work evident?

yes.

7. is the video appropriate to the audience (either general public or technology professionals)

GP video was a little in the weeds. Good depth on the pro video.

Part 2: What I Learned

I think our team communicated quite well all things considered. We had one team member take some unexpected business travel to India. This gave the team some experience working across time zones, something that can be difficult to manage. India + US west coast is one of the more challenging time differences to manage. Even with these challenges, we took full advantage of the asynchronous online communication tools to work through our development plan and get the video project done. We did leave things a little late, so if I were doing it again I would work harder with my team to get things done sooner.

The project manager is the CEO of a project, responsible for its execution. A work breakdown structure is a hierarchical breakdown of all deliverables in a project.

Industry Expert Interview

  Introduction For my industry expert interview I spoke with Kevin Strishock, Director of DevOps at Rivian and Volkswagen Group Technologies. I selected Kevin because of his position as a Director in the company where I want to further develop my career. He has multiple years of experience in this company as well as being a devops leader for many years previous to this company. He has experience from non-automotive industries that he brought to Rivian Volkswagen that have made him successful in the role, which is something I would like to emulate. Summary Kevin started his career as a system administrator, developing deep expertise in managing BSD and linux systems. He said that he still leverages this experience today, joking that he’s been pushing the same buttons for 30 years. Reflecting on his career and what led him to be successful in the automotive industry, his depth serving cloud and IoT businesses was an advantage. Understanding the physical aspects of systems gave him ...

Week 4/100

Part 1 I've been working towards a degree for 28 years. My first educational goal is to complete my BS degree in the timeline of this CSUMB program. I am still driving hard to complete an undergraduate degree so I have the option of pursuing further education. I'm interested in an MBA to refine my business leadership skills. My second educational goal is to be accepted to and start an MBA program in the year after completing my BS. Part 2 I want to return to organizational leadership but with a new set of skills that I learn from reaching my educational goals. I want to build and maintain a level of credibility in leading larger organizations than I have in the past, to end my career on a high note.  Part 3 I feel pretty good about the test. From going over the sample I have an idea of what my current gaps are. I think 18 months is plenty of time to close the gaps to get a good score. I think I will get at least 90%. I'm pretty confident in being able to prepare well, but a...
