Report Aims and Objectives

Here is an attempt to put the aims and objectives into words. It was a quite difficult to word the aim and this will need clarification with my supervisor to see if it is clear enough.

Aims

·      Provide an online, student generated, recipe portal

Objectives

Offer a simple, intuitive interface, which allows the user to:

·      Register/Log in

·      Upload, edit and delete their own recipes with pictures and step by step method

·      Browse previously uploaded recipes according to category or through search filtering

·      Rate previously uploaded recipes

·      Flagging for spam/bad content

Technically:

·      Email confirmation for registration process

Report Introduction

Here's my first attempt at the introduction for my report.

In the ‘information age’ that we live in, where students are more likely to use their mobile phones or laptops to talk to each other and access information, the art and appeal of recipe books is becoming lost in the myriad of ‘quick fixes’ available. As students constantly seek out the fastest way to access what they need, the perceived labour-intensive, time-consuming practice of cooking your own meals is becoming less and less a task that students are willing to complete.

This project aims to produce a recipes website targeted at students in which (although there will be preloaded recipes by myself) all of the recipes will be generated by the student population themselves. As a result, the complexity and skill level of recipes will vary greatly according to previous knowledge of cooking practices, it will also encourage students to be proactive when it comes to cooking their own meals as they will have first hand proof that people in similar situations are able to prepare their own flavoursome, home-cooked meals.

Food society

I was talking to one of my colleagues in the enterprise society yesterday and he mentioned that he is part of the Leeds University food society. I mentioned my project and he said that this would be something that the society would be interested in. He mentioned how at the moment, they are just using facebook to talk about recipes with each other. Having a site in which they could actually upload their own recipes is surely something that would be ideal for them! As a result, I will aim to utilize these keen 'foodies' as potential consumers of the site.
