User:Maliyusuf65/Week 7


 * Starting this week, for the next two weeks you are not allowed to do project work during class. Not at all.
 * In class review of resistors, LEDs (digital output), basic breadboard circuits, and Arduino programming
 * Digital input (switch)

--New Rules--
 * 1) Team meetings to negotiate weekly tasks: Later during the week each member will finish his/her part of the work and report back in the class. You MUST tell me before leaving what you plan to do. Write it on wikiversity and get zero marks next time by not doing it!
 * 2) Negotiate project documentation: Once again decide who will work on which part and document it on my page under project 1. Project documentation currently is very weak for most of you. Now that you know wikiversity, you are expected to create detailed documentation. Do not copy you engineering notebooks there. Wikiversity is for the finished product - engineering notebook is for nitty gritty details, steps and failures.
 * 3) Get notebooks graded: I do it every Monday. But this time you will sit with me individually and tell me what exactly you did and where (in lab, outside, at home, etc). While I am talking to one student, asking questions will reduce your points. You must wait until I am done with notebook grading. This is the time you can use for items 1 and 2 above.
 * 4) Work on assignments: There is no assignment in Canvas this week but we may have some next week. I’ll give you some electronics/programming assignment in the class.
 * 5) Practice formal presentations: Start preparing for the second (Thursday) presentation as all groups have to present and only one has presented. This is something you can do in the class but you must have something to practice and present. You should ‘prepare’ presentations at times other than class as you will not have enough time to do that in the lab. You can even leave the lab, go to another room and practice. Come back and present to the whole class. Let me know before leaving so that I take attendance when all have returned.
 * 6) Informal activity presentations: This is a project or idea you have found interesting and developed on your own. Give a presentation to the class on it. Don’t show you tube videos. Make your own video if you want. Two of you will be presenting on you industry visit this Monday. Failure to do so will get you zero points.
 * 7) Finally, return or borrow material from the lab under supervision (me or John). All borrowings must be recorded and similarly all returns must be recorded. This will happen in the last 25 minutes or so.
