Project 3: Presentation Instructions

For project 3 you will be allocated randomly into small groups.

Each group will work together to solve the problem, produce a single group report to hand in, and make a presentation to the class.

Learn your group number!

Decide on a name for your group (e.g., Pygmy Telephone & Telegraph) to put on the cover of your reports along with the group number.

Quickly establish contact with the other members of the group, allocate roles/subtasks, arrange regular mtg times, and get started early.

The presentations will allow you to compare your group's approach with a variety of other approaches. Hopefully it should also be fun. The presentations will be during the last two classes of the term (see Schedule).

Each group will have about 10 minutes to describe their work to the class.

The order of the presentations will be randomly selected each day at the start of that class. Everyone is required to attend all of the presentations.

Format of the presentation:

• It's up to you which group members talk during the presentation.
• The presentation will consist of:
  1. A very brief introduction of all the group members.
  2. A few slides showing graphically how the sentence is built.
     Material may be hand drawn, as long as they are of high quality.
  3. Some rationale for major design decisions.
  4. A slide showing the whole sentence.
• A computer is available for the presentation. Note that as group-to-group turnaround time must be very short, you'll need to load slides at the start of class.
