Projects#

What should the presentation look like?

The presentation should provide:

  • introductory & culminating statements about the project

  • full description of your topic and its parts

  • code implementation

  • speak to the design of your code: what did you use, why did you use is

  • compile and explain the output

  • time for questions

Some formal visualization should be used and able to be submitted with your project.

How long should the 212 Project presentation be?

Your group will be allocated a 15 minute window to present your project. How you choose to use this time is up to you. Assuming a minute to set up and 1-2 minutes of questions, the presentation itself should be approximately 12-13 minutes. Under 11 minutes or over 15 minutes will result in lost credit.

Are we presenting in lab or lecture?

Presentations will take place in Week 14. All lecture and lab periods will be utilized for presentations that week. Presentations will be held remotely through zoom. Groups tend to do best when presenting from the one location collectively.
