The FINAL Rating Score sheet must be posted to Discussions as well, just before date due.

Your lecturer is the Project Sponsor/Owner. Each week during class time (or online meeting) your Project Sponsor will give you instructions. If appropriate, the Project Owner may issue new instructions to the team. Hence your attendance at these events is very important. For online students, it is important for you to listen to the recording before 12 noon the following day. As a team, you work to the instructions of the Product Owner and Team Leader (Scrum Master).

The Journal function in Interact2 is used to submit your work. External journal sites are not permitted. If your country geo-blocks Interact2 website or your circumstance prevents you from accessing the Internet (eg. due to a disability), please contact your lecturer immediately. If it is an office/organisation firewall preventing access, you must find an alternative Internet access point to complete this task.

Warning: Entering or editing data in this journal entry after 2359 hours on date due will result in the
deduction of marks.
