Weekly Meetings with Instructor

The meetings with the instructor are for the benefit of the team, and a well prepared team gets the most out of these meetings. Prepare an 8 minute presentation that include:

• Concise overview of project and objectives (1 minute)

• Progress from last week

• Objectives for next week

  • Names of students should be listed  next to the objectives they are responsible for.

• Address questions instructor raised in prior week.

• Summary of sponsor’s feedback from previous meeting

• Concerns and questions

Good Practices

• • Clear figures with labels (most slides should have a relevant image)

  • Analysis should describe assumptions made and methods used

  • Important numerical values should be included whenever possible

  • Notes should be taken during the meeting

  • After the meeting share the presentation and instructor comments with the sponsor

Note: On weeks of oral presentations there are no team meetings with instructors.
