Some Notes (Guidelines) on the Mini Project
1. Groups have been formed to work together on this mini project. Although there is a baseline group point, students may receive individual credit for the project. This is based on how well the ideas are addressed, your peers’ evaluation about your contribution to the project, and your response to questions during a short meeting with the instructor.
