Project Presentations Schedule

Project Presentations

Each team will have an opportunity to present your project to the class on either Wednesday, 27 April or Monday, 2 May. You will have 5 minutes maximum for your presentation (which will need to be enforced strictly to be able to complete all the presentations within the schedule class period). It is fine if your presentation is shorter (which might even allow time for questions), but you should keep the time limit in mind in planning your presentation.

Teams presenting should submit your slides as either a PDF file, a link to a (publicly-visible) URL, or a PowerPoint file by sending a slack message in your team channel to me no later than 10:29am on the date of your presentation.
