Overview

Prepare a 3 to 4 slide presentation to support a conversation about the state of your project. This is an opportunity for feedback, and to practice presenting accessibly. At a minimum, include information about

  1. What you have done for this milestone
  2. How this compares to what you intended
  3. What you will do for your next milestone including any revisions to your plans
  4. Areas where you need advice/feedback.

Use this to engage us in a conversation that is useful to your project team.

Assessment & Handin Process

Everyone should individually fill out the form about group work and individually turn in any optional competencies on Gradescope. Your slide deck (and any required competencies) will be group handins.

Optional Information to hand in

In addition, you may choose to hand in the following optional information. Please ask the instructors if you're unsure what additional work or materials might be needed to complete these.

Accessible Documents

  • Your writeup (Microsoft word) or PowerPoint
  • A list of images and the ALT text you wrote for each of them
  • Which best practices are demonstrated in this document or PowerPoint
  • A screen shot showing the accessibility checker results for your document or PowerPoint

Accessible Presenting

  • Tell us which video you want to be assessed (from the class videos including discussion leads; and AT around us presentations)
  • Timestamps for places in the video where any of the following best practices are demonstrated.
    • Introduce and describe yourself
    • Verbally describe images and videos so that someone who cannot see the screen can understand them
    • Repeat questions for clarity and member checking (even if on zoom)
  • Note that your presentation must have positive examples of at least seven of the ten best practices to be assessed as excellent on this competency.
