Guidelines for external projects
1. Project Presentations

- If you have questions on a project, send email to the listed contact.
- If you want to sign up for a project as a team or as an individual, send email to pkc@cs.fit.edu
- I suggest specifying your first choice, second choice, ...
- generally "first come first serve"
- generally teams have a higher priority than individuals

2. Student-proposed Projects
- Submit your proposal as soon as possible--usually you will need several rounds of revisions from my feedback (I recommend submitting by the first of July)
- Proposals can be submitted the latest on Monday of the first week of classes (which I don't recommend because of multiple revisions, so submit by the end of July)
- Need my approval by Wednesday of the first week of classes (I don't usually approve in a few days because of multiple revisions)
- What are the three main ideas/features/reasons that your project is interesting (e.g., novel, useful, effective, faster, cheaper, or ...) to potentially a large group of people (not just you)?
More specifically:
- What are the opportunities/pains?
- Do other users feel similar "pains" and why? Ask/read 3 users/articles.
- What are the main ideas/features for improvement to create value?
- Ask 3 users if the ideas create value; if not, brainstorm with them for ideas (what about X, does X make it better?).
- Use Proposal Template to provide a proposal in slides (provide the requested content, slide design/format can be changed)
