The first semester work culminates in creating a writeup that details each group's progress on their projects, as well as individual contributions. In this writeup, each group will create a profile for their client as well as their liason, overview the problem they were tasked with solving, describe any research steps taken, and break down the features of the final solution. Beyond this, students are expected to detail their own contributions, as well as their experience working in the group as a whole. Finally, the writeup should end with each individual describing lessons learned from the experience, as well as describing their own recomendations for further improvement of their implementation.
Each student will be required to give a 7 minute presentation on a technical topic of their choosing, preferably relating to their group project. Students will then be required to write a brief evaluation of every presentation. Finally, students will then write a synopsis of the feedback they receive from their peers, and describe measures they could take to make improvements on their presentation.
