 What have you learned about the use of agile vs. waterfall in software projects?
 I have learned about the waterfall vs. agile flow; how agile leaves room for learning and adjusting, whereas with waterfall it seems as though you need to have all the information sussed out before you begin the project. 

 How did you and your group approach project management in this project (what tools did you use, how did you hold each other accountable, etc.)?
 We definitely took an agile approach. We did two DTR's and daily check ins; we took notes and updated Trello with every activity we started; we adjusted expectations daily according to what got done the previous day.

 What role did you take on in the project?
 I was a time keeper, a note taker, made git commit reminders, and worked on method writing.

 What changes would you make to your approach in future team projects?
 I think once I am more adept at writing successful methods, I could do more independent work.

 How does retro function in a team project?
 We all did an amazing job!! I feel like we were all strong listeners and communicators. I was really proud of our product, but more proud of our teams efforts.

 In your team retro, how did you engage in the feedback process? What principles of feedback did you use in these conversations?
 Our feedback process happened daily at 7:30 am. It was very relaxed; we just went over the must do's and the like to do's, adjusted our Trello board and talked through the project.
 We made sure to be really specific about what we needed to get done, and assigned peoples names to that task.

 How would you describe your ability to communicate feedback? 
 Great. I wasn't inhibited at all to ask for help, or ask my teammates to take on parts of the project.
 How has this experience affected your communication skills? 
 I feel like it's given me a little more confidence in busting out expectations with (kind of) strangers!
 How do you want to improve in your ability to communicate feedback?
 I think making concrete plans the first time around- not being too flexible- would be a good place to start.
