Group Assignment 2015 - Presentation Schedule

The presentations date was finalized now. It will be on 21st February, 2015. The venue will be notified later but most probably the same venue where we conduct the lectures. You can submit the reports until 17th 18th February, 2015. No later than that. The presentation schedule is published at https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1xtOKmPwrAkYK1l7F7Bn2qi8SU4CpCbYC2oAYxgjvq_w/pubhtml

If any of the teams need to change their time slot they can discuss with any other team and swap the slot. It was enough to inform that during the presentation. At the start of the presentation the team leader must handover the presentation order of the group. So please prepare it beforehand.

The time duration for each presentation is strictly limited to 20min. If it goes beyond that limit the team will have reduced marks accordingly.

We need the soft copy of the presentation so please be ready for it.

The Venue will be ITU2. Presentations will be starting at 9.00am.
Please handover your presentations to course coordinators Ravindra Sandakan or Saman Aravinda. The deadline is as mentioned above 17th 18th February, 2015, 5.00PM.
