Project 1 Feedback, Project 2 Revised Proposals

by Mike Gleicher on April 20, 2012

I have initial feedback for all of the project 1. It isn’t totally “graded” but there is at least some commentary that may help you in planning project 2. (my not-so-good excuse for the delay is that I wanted to focus on giving feedback for P2)

I will warn people that on the first pass, I am often noting what is wrong, not necessarily counting up all that’s right. (it’s kind of like grading a test where you put an X on the 1 that’s wrong, rather than 99 checkmarks on the one that’s correct).

Today, the revised and approved project 2 proposals were due. I have gotten few of them so far (and have not responded to any of them). I’ll give people the excuse that you were waiting for P1 feedback. So, everyone can have an extension until Monday. However, remember that this is for having a project proposal approved: just sending it to us at the last minute is not an opportunity for us to iterate with you.

I am noticing from the final results of P1, that more careful scrutiny at the revised proposal and 3rd week update phase may have caught problems. So I strongly encourage people to give us description of what you are doing and where things are going (as much as possible): the more we get from you, the more we may be able to help steer you.
