The instructor aloneassesses the quality of the presentation. The panel is instructed to focus solely on the quality ofdesign; they are NOT involved in the assessment process. The purpose is to allow students theopportunity to honestly present their ideas and get feedback on their designs before entering theExecuting Processes. The students provide a copy of their presentation slides to the panel a fewdays before the review, present during the review for 20 minutes, and spend 40 minutes in a Q/Asession.Prototype Demonstrations - Teams are required to include prototype demonstrations in theirproject

The College ofEngineering determined that there is very little time to providea thorough lecture-based material during online sessions.The online chat concept allows more student engagement as afollow-up to the multimedia content presented during theweek. The chat sessions are recorded. If students are unableto attend the chat session, then they must view the recordingand turn in an assigned project or solve a particular homeworkproblem described during the chat session.
