Documents

  Each team must submit a number of documents

along with well-documented, stylistically-acceptable code. One team member acts as ``presenter and individual responsible for the final review'' of each document. The responsible person should ``sign off'' on the document; that is, his/her name should be clearly indicated on the cover page of the document and his/her signature should be on the cover page. No team member may act more than once in this capacity until all team members have signed off on a document at least once. The ``signer off'' will receive an individual grade based upon the quality of the document's form. In particular, such things as poor English, shoddy formatting, haphazard organization, unclear exposition, poor or incomplete presentation, and lack of neatness will be counted against the him/her. The grade for the content of the document, as opposed to its form, will be assigned to the team as a whole.

Time constraints will probably prevent each team from making a presentation on each of their planning documents, but any signer off must be prepared to make a presentation of approximately 15 minutes on the main points of the document's content, and the Instructor reserves the right to call upon any signer off to make such a presentation without prior notice.

If teams are large, there may not be enough documents for everyone to sign off a document. Team members who are left out may acquire a grade of equal weight by submitting a diary of their activity in the team (see Section 2.8). These submitted diaries will be judged on their form and comprehensiveness in the same way as the quality judgment applied to planning documents and reports.
