In the meeting on 17/03/2014 you should present your project idea.
You would be given 15 minutes for that as follows:
On the first 5 minutes you would present the main scenario (use case) and perssonas that your application targets.
Describe the situation, the need and the data involved and the decisions made in the process.
Describe the overall architecture of the application, what functionality will be implemented in each part: client/server/mobile/external sources/etc.
Present initial feature list and divide the features into milestones. Estimate what could be *demonstrated* in one month, what could be demonstrated after another 2 months and what are possible extensions that could not be finished within the time frame of the semester but seems to be natural extension of your application.
Include in your presentation UI mock-ups.
On the next 5 minutes you would answer questions from the rest of the class and the workshop staff.
During this discussion the workshop team would try to estimate whether your use-case is well developed and your estimations are real.
On the last 5 minutes you would get feedback from workshop staff.
Good example for a presentation:
Some tips:
Early feedback is a good thing! It is advisable that you send us your idea or presentation as soon as possible via email (taugadgets@gmail.com) - this would save you a lot of time (e.g. if you took a wrong directions, impossible mission, etc.).
15 minutes is a very short time!
If you are preparing a power point presentation - do not prepare more than 5 slides (including cover slide).
Be Visual: If you have already thought about user interface, you may show a sketch of it in the presentation.
You may bring your own laptop (so no computability problems would occur during your presentation).
Be simple and precise.
Take a look at presentation from previous semesters (for example at the bottom of https://sites.google.com/site/cloudweb10a/teams-and-projects)
Rehearse your presentation within the team and make sure you are all on the same page.
Please send us your presentation before the meeting.
Good luck
