Mid-term Student
Project Presentations |
Students working on projects have
chosen a problem experienced by individuals with disabilities and have been
working to research, brainstorm, design, fabricate, and test a prototype device
or software to address an identified challenge or problem.
Students will give an informal (ungraded) three-minute
presentation in class that does not include PowerPoint slides or
screen-sharing.The presentation should include the following elements for those
working on fabrication projects: project title, background, problem,
aim, design criteria, "understanding the problem" & design criteria &
brainstorming activities, and selected solution(s) to be pursued. Students
working on the same project will present together. For students working on
non-fabrication projects the presentation should include: project title,
background, activities performed, and future plans.
Students taking the course asynchronously will submit a
three-minute video to be shared.
