Assignment 5
General Information
- E-mail
your project proposal (described below) to me at
ffggc@uaf.edu,
using the subject
"HA5".
(If you wish to discuss the assignment with
me via e-mail, use a different subject.)
- Be sure to include your name in your e-mail.
- Due: Thursday, March 11 (any time).
- Worth: 25 points.
Project Proposal (25 points)
Write a short proposal for what you plan to do for a semester project.
A serious, complete, on-time proposal will receive full credit.
The project will be worth 100 points.
It will consist of three parts:
- A preliminary version is due on Thursday, April 8.
- The final version is due on Thursday, April 22.
- You will be expected to give a short presentation
in class, probably during the last week of class.
When determining length and level of difficulty,
think in terms of doing four regular assignments.
Grading for the project (as opposed to the proposal)
will be contract-based:
you and I agree on what your project requirements will be;
if these requirements are fulfilled, the project will
receive full credit.
Your proposal is a draft version of your project requirements.
It should include:
- What your project will be/do.
- What hardware/software will be required to run whatever program(s) you
are going to write.
- E.g., a C++ compiler, OpenGL & GLUT, a VR environment running VR Juggler, etc.
- What features the preliminary version will include.
- I would prefer having some features fully completed, as opposed to all
features partially completed, but of course the feasibility of this depends on
your project topic.
- What documentation you will provide.
- There should be some, but it need not be extensive.
After your proposal has been turned in, I will read it and
return it to you with comments.
