Pre-sprint 2 Point Estimation

Please take a look at the following user stories in the backlog on Jira. When you click each one, you should see the story details pop up on the right. In the description, you'll see the story's acceptance criteria.

For each story, think about how many points you think it's worth. I said yesterday to think of it as the number of days you think a story might take, but as we talked about earlier this semester, that's not usually how it's done. Instead, think of the complexity and difficulty of the task, then assign a number from the Fibonacci sequence (1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34) to the story (a 2-point story should be twice the effort/complexity/etc. of a 1 points story; a 5-point story should be five times the effort/complexity/etc.). Note that I assigned most of the design work 2 points. We'll calibrate what 1 story point represents after next sprint.

Keep in mind that the user stories build on each other, so if earlier stories are completed, the later stories can use the product of those earlier stories.
