The presentation dates will be announced at the beginning of the semester so that travel plans can be made. A critical component of the capstone will be peer feedback. All papers be evaluated by the other teams and conversely. The evaluations will be a chance for ideas to flow among peers.
Teams can see other ideas, other approaches, and other writing techniques.
Teams can get feedback on additional references, improvements to analysis and approach, as well as suggestions for writing and organization. Grading Responsibility for assigning final grades is shared by all telecommunications faculty including but not limited to the faculty mentor. It is based on the final paper, the public presentation, and for completing the reviews of other teams work.
