DES516 – PPD Project #1 Timetable – Design change tracking

Project 1: Change tracking – awareness of what you are doing.

Duration – 1 week. Marks awarded – 10%

Please find the attached spreadsheet (Design Timetable). Make a version of that table without loss of any critical information that is:

  1. Easier to read
  2. Quicker to read
  3. Less visually cluttered
  4. Printable on A4 sheet
  5. Clear and less read error prone
  6. Reduce the ink to data ratio

“Perfection is achieved not when there is nothing more to add, but when there is nothing left to take away” – Antoine de Saint-Exupery

Record each change you make from start to finished item. Make an animated gif showing each of up to 15 steps.
