In order to keep on top of my time management i created a gaunt chart during this project. This is something i can use as a timeline to map out what I’m doing and when, to keep on top of my work. I found out from my college what we would be working on and at what times so i could fill in my gaunt chart correctly. From my own experience and line managers experience i was then able to fill in how long it would take to do each one. To make sure i keep to my goals, i made sure i looked back on my gaunt chart every few days so i knew if i was on track.
I couldn’t keep up to my gaunt chart through out some of it because on the dates 13/06/17 and 14/06/17 i was not at college so i missed a few lessons leaving me to fall behind. To make this not an issue i got in contact with my teacher to find out the work i have missed and did it at home so i was still on time when it came to creating my website.
Another issue i had to over come was during my project i found some of the sections more challenging than i expected i would. For example i found the development stage took me a lot longer to do as i found it hard to pick up. I had never used code HTML and CSS before so i had to pick up from knowing nothing. I had to have a lot of guidance from my teacher and had a lot of questions to ask. When I couldn’t ask for any guidance i found myself googling a lot which stepped me back a lot in time.
Whereas sections like design I found very easy and I actually completed this quicker than I imagined. Picking colour themes, logo’s and the general visual design is something I do day to day in my job so this felt like home to me.
