Prototype 3/Class presentation

You will have approximately 20 minutes for your presentation, including any required setup time and including questions from the audience. You should use powerpoint for your presentation, but you may mix it with live demos of one or more of your prototype iterations. In your presentation you should address at least the following issues:

• A brief (one-slide) description of the environment in which your system will be used.
• The required functions in the first release of your system. This should be an updated version of the list contained in your project description.
• An explanation of the functionality that you explored in each prototype iteration. This might be identified by some form of annotation on the required functions slide, or it might be presented by walking the audience through some details for each iteration, perhaps with a demonstration of the frozen prototype that resulted from one or more iterations.
• A discussion of what you learned about the design of your user interface through the prototype iteration process.
• A discussion of what you learned about the rapid prototyping process from this experience.
• At least one idea for a way in which the course (readings, lecture content, homework, practice exercises. and/or project) could be improved next time the course is offered.

The prototype and the powerpoint slides for the class presentation should be turned in by creating a Web page that links to each, linking to that page from your project Web page, and then sending the professor and a TA an email stating that it is there before the beginning of class on the date that it is due. I may need to download your slides from the Web in Australia if the shared powerpoint function does not work correctly.
