Project Proposal

Due on Sun, 05/09 @ 11:59PM. 4 Points.

During the last 4 weeks of the course, you will be designing and implementing a final project of your choosing. The parameters of the project are described in detail on the final project overview page.

Your task

1. Carefully read the final project overview page.
2. Fill out this project proposal worksheet.

Take a look at the appendix (in the Google Doc) for some examples of how to fill the worksheet out, but try not to be too constrained by these examples. Feel free to make this project work for you and your goals.

Some projects from last year…

There were many different kinds of projects, and most students learned these technologies as they went along. Don’t feel like you need to conform to any of these ideas. Make this assignment your own!

Rubric

Really, we just want to see that you put some time and effort into thinking about what you want to accomplish and what it might take to make it happen. Along these lines, we will be grading you on:

1. Completeness
2. Demonstrated attention and thought to the scope, nature, and breakdown of the tasks.
3. Evidence that you did some legwork to explore what kinds of examples, tutorials, and web resouces are out there.

What to turn in

• Please upload your completed planning worksheet as a Word document or PDF file.
• Don’t include the appendix (sample projects) – just your proposal.
• Only one submission per team (if you’re working on a team).
