Introduce instructor to design teams and projects.

Turn in posters and final powerpoints from last semester.

School and multipurpose center.
a) break into six total groups of about 5 members each
b) brainstorm realistic end of semester goals for each group that provide useful value for clients (do this with entire class since both projects are similar)
c) determine how the set of goals can be broken up for smaller groups; do we have an executive group for each project?
d) what is the final deliverable for the customers?
e) what will be presented at the end of the semester?

Turn in group goals and strategies prior to leaving class (draft). Include names and numbers of all group members.

Each group will turn in a project summary. The summary has: names of all students in the group, the overall goals and scope of the project, a list or table of individual tasks, and final project deliverables. Every option considered in the designs must be compared with one or more alternative options based upon cost/benefit analysis.

We will have short presentations. One person from each group (group order and student to present both chosen at random) will explain the goals, schedule, and deliverables for each group in an 8 minute powerpoint presentation. The good and bad aspects of each presentation will be discussed by the class.
