November 15 Update

Last class was spent finalizing and presenting our elevator pitches. We ended up taking what we believed were the best aspects from each elevator pitch, and we worked on condensing the pitch into the 45 second range. Other than the elevator pitch, we began talking about what the volunteer organization software would ideally include when it is finished. We concluded we would like to include the current status of volunteers (deployed or not deployed and how recently they were deployed), a list of their skill sets, an update for volunteers about a crisis, and a preemptive alert to a volunteer if it was a possibility for them to be deployed. Lastly, we agreed to finalize any elevator pitch changes and prepared to have a meeting with Marc in a few classes. Any ideas we have for the software design will be talked about with Marc and he will let us know what he believes is necessary or helpful.
