This is a copy of the email about the final projects that I sent to everyone on November 30:
There will be no final exam for the course, but we will be meeting
at the time scheduled for the exam (Dec 17 from 6 to 8pm), when each
group will give a ten minute presentation/demo of their project to
the class.
Final projects will be due on December 22. You are to submit a
written report divided into the following sections:
Title Centered at the top of the first page.
Author names Centered under the title.
Introduction Describe what the project was designed to do.
Methodology Describe the development steps you actually followed.
Results Describe what the final version of your project
actually does.
Discussion Describe the project development experience here. For
example, you might tell what problems you had to
overcome and how successful you were in overcoming them.
And/or you might tell how you would design the project
if you were to do it over again. Also, you should
tell whether this project was particularly well-suited
for implementing on the RC200 or not.
Appendix Well documented code listings. (See coding guidelines
for the course.)
Do not try to "sell" your project. A frank discussion that includes
both its strong and weak points will count much more.
The project will be graded as follows:
25% Proposal (Clarity, structure, English usage)
15% Presentation/demo (Organization, clarity, effectiveness)
30% Report (Clarity, structure, content, English usage)
30% Code (Clarity, structure, style, documentation,
functionality)
