Grading
September 30th, 2022
Your grade in Senior Design will be based on the written report and presentation. Grades will be based on a combination of the following factors:
- Situation / problem difficulty
- Quality of work
- Depth of analysis
- Professionalism of presentation and written report
- Originality of work
The first three factors operate together, so that lower problem difficulty can be overcome by higher work quality and greater depth of analysis, while a very difficult project need not be considered in as great a depth as a less demanding problem. Below is a sample evaluation sheet used by your instructor in assessing your project and course grade.
