2. Final Challenge Scoring - Logbook
Facts:
25% of the overall Score
50% of Documentation awards

3. Final Challenge Scoring - Logbook
Logbook included in Panasonic parts kit.
All project work should be recorded
Completed pages should be signed and dated to establish a chronology
See instructions printed in the front of the logbook, including:
Use ink
Record all meetings
Include all raw data

4. Final Challenge Scoring - Logbook
Each logbook will be evaluated by at least two judges.
In keeping with the rules of the design challenge and basic purpose of the engineering logbook, the logbook will be judged in three categories:
Logical/Chronological Flow of Ideas: The process leading to the final design must be substantiated either in theory by calculation or empirically by experimentation.
Proof of Performance: Evidence of operation of the device within design parameters, including final test results.
Adherence to Logbook Procedures: Basic "housekeeping" practices as outlined in the rules and logbook including signatures, dates, titles, table of contents, etc.

Comments …
The team did not read the logbook guidelines. The book has no description, detailed problems nor solutions, only taped diagrams. This is an example of what not to do.
The team did not discuss the final testing after the changes were made. The problems were documented but the testing of the final design is omitted.
I am very impressed with the proof of performance from this team. They clearly explain the problems and the way to go about resolving the issues. Good job. Left a page blank on pg 166 but were consistent with the guidelines. No penalty awarded.
