Project The idea of the course is to let students learn what CANNOT be Taught without SERIOUS practical involvement.

Project Objectives Through a full semester collaborative project, students will learn: How to define project specifications from requirements How to behave in a team as an efficient team player How to produce a good design How to prepare and present a market analysis and component survey How to select components that best fit the specifications How to define interfaces with other teams How to come up and respect a schedule What to do in case of problems How to ask specific questions How to get help How to define project specifications from requirements How to behave in a team as an efficient team player How to produce a good design How to prepare and present a market analysis and component survey How to select components that best fit the specifications How to define interfaces with other teams How to come up and respect a schedule What to do in case of problems How to ask specific questions How to get help

Project Organization Instructor defines requirements Instructor divides the class in groups Common brainstorming session where we: –Define the specifications all together –Define the different components (hardware/software entities) and assign them to teams –Each team will define a schedule based on the sub-tasks that it comes up with –Each team should produce a design report where it exposes its view on how it is going to be done Instructor defines requirements Instructor divides the class in groups Common brainstorming session where we: –Define the specifications all together –Define the different components (hardware/software entities) and assign them to teams –Each team will define a schedule based on the sub-tasks that it comes up with –Each team should produce a design report where it exposes its view on how it is going to be done
