Please sign up for a session below.\n\nThe presentation will serve a few purposes:\n\n\nProject retrospective – provide the teams with an opportunity to assess how the project went\, a chance for reflection\, to talk about what went well\, and what could be done differently. The ultimate goal is to identify lessons learned.\nABET accreditation fulfillment – within 1) above\, directly or indirectly answer a) a knowledge of contemporary issues\, b) a recognition of the need for\, and an ability to engage in life-long learning\, and c) understand the impact of engineering solutions in a global\, economic\, environmental\, and societal context.\nJunior preview – members of the Junior class are invited and encouraged to attend these sessions as a preview for what to expect and the challenges facing them in Fall quarter.\n\n\n Each team will have 10 minutes to present and 3 minutes for questions and answers. As a minimum\, your presentations should cover the following:\n\nProject background\, goal\, and objectives\nWhat have you done? Did you or will you achieve the goal?\nDid you deviate from your original scope? If so\, why?\nWhere did you fail? What did you learn?\nWhat steps will be taken for the future? What will become of this project?\n\nThe theme for this review is “A celebration of failures.” There are two types of failures: those that generate information and those that do not. When elements of a project fails because you tried something new and it did not work\, you generate useful information and a worthwhile learning experience. When elements of a project fails because you neglect things that you already know you should do\, then there is no useful information. These types of failures are mistakes and we will not celebrate them. To prepare for the presentation hold a discussion with your team using the questions below:\n\nWere the goal and objectives of the project clear?\nDid we clearly define our scope and boundary conditions?\nWere you given the adequate resources to achieve those goals?\nWas the schedule realistic for the deliverables?\nWas there adequate research effort made?\nDid you interview enough experts to help with the projects?\nDid the team use what was learned in the analysis?\nDid you spend time formulating the right questions?\nDid everyone know what they were supposed to do?\nDid you suffer from a communication breakdown?\nDid you have intolerable teammates? Are you the intolerable teammate?\nWhat changes can be made for our team’s processes?\nWhat went well?\nWhat were frustrating?\nDoes the project’s scope come with commensurate level of challenge?\nThere is a gap between where you are and where you envisioned to be\, what were the causes?\n\n URL:http://projects.mae.uci.edu/event/spring-2018-peer-reviews-day-2/ LOCATION:33 E Peltason Dr\, Irvine\, Irvine\, 92617\, United States GEO:33.6428381;-117.8396142 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=33 E Peltason Dr Irvine Irvine 92617 United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=33 E Peltason Dr\, Irvine:geo:-117.8396142,33.6428381 CATEGORIES:Students ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:http://projects.mae.uci.edu/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/Engineering-Gateway.jpg END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
