Semester Project

Poster Deliverable

You must submit your poster in either PPT, PPTX, or PDF (preferably PPTX) on the appropriate Canvas assignment. You must include the following items:

  1. Title and List of Team Members - Include photos if possible so that people can find you during the poster session if you're not at your poster.
  2. Background - Give 1-2 paragraphs of background information so that anyone who is not familiar with your project area can understand it.
  3. Problem - In 2-3 paragraphs (preferably including diagrams), describe the problem you addressed in your project.
  4. Methods/Experiments - In 2-3 paragraphs (preferably including diagrams), describe your contributions to solving or addressing the problem described in the previous section.
  5. Results - Provide any relevant results in the form of graphs, charts, tables, or text. Remember that any images will be enlarged; include vector graphics wherever possible.
  6. Conclusion & Future Work - Provide a 1-2 sentence summary and then describe at least 2-3 concrete ideas that you have for extending this project in the future.

Do not try to fit everything you have onto the poster; focus on the most important points and use visual aids (images, figures, graphs, etc.) whenever possible. Here is a poster template you may use; however, you may use any format that is clean, readable, and scales properly to a 3'x2' landscape poster board. Check carefully for factual errors as well as grammar and spelling mistakes before you submit--such things are very embarrassing during a poster session!

Your submission will be graded on its correctness, completeness, thoroughness, and scope. Because every project is different, it is impossible to provide a single rubric. Each submission will be graded based on its individual merit. Some portion of the grade will be based on your attendance and presentation at the poster session on April 12 (9:30-11:30 AM in ISAT/CS) using this rubric. I will provide some written feedback and assign you an overall letter grade for this submission as follows:

Exceptional A
Good B
Satisfactory C
Deficient D
Unacceptable F
