• Feb 22nd: Group meetings are in EECS 4122 (as listed on the Doodle page).
• Feb 18th: Big e-mail sent (which hopefuly everyone got, I've been finding my class e-mails are being put in spam...)

  Sorry for all the recent spam. Because of some scheduling issues on our part, things are a lot more pressed than I'd like right now. So I thought I'd send this e-mail to try to clarify everything that is coming up.

  • Sunday: 1:30pm in EECS 1005--review/Question and Answer for the class. Should end by 3pm.
  • Monday: I'd like each project group to e-mail me A) who is in your group and B) a one sentence description of your project. Those that haven't yet formed groups yet, could you please just drop me a line by Monday night with some idea of what you'd like to do? I'll try to match people up.
  • Tuesday: Exam in class!
  • Wednesday & Thursday: We will be having project group meetings on Wednesday (and Thursday as needed). We'll have a link up to sign up for those by Monday morning.
    • During the project meetings we want your formal proposal. See the project handout (http://www.eecs.umich.edu/courses/eecs373/labsW12/projects/373%20Projects%20Handout%20W12.pdf and given out in class) for details of what a good proposal looks like.

  In addition many of the topic presentation groups have been slow on getting going. What you need to do is:

  • Meet with me (all of you ideally) in office hours or after class. You should have done some reading on the topic and have a basic outline ready to discuss.
  • Meet with me for two practice talks. These generally take 30-40 minutes (you talk for 10-12 minutes, I give feedback for 15-20 minutes). You can sign up for a meeting in the next week or so at http://www.doodle.com/4ez9q343q7n6pskx. Those groups going on March 6th need to get signed up ASAP. Meet at my office for these talks (we'll move from there).

  Please let me know if you have any questions!
