For your final project, use the skills you've developed in this class to tackle a new problem. For example, you could develop a visualization for a complex dataset, construct a physicalization, visualize an algorithmic process, or run an experiment to explore graphical perception. Be creative and have fun!
Please submit a preliminary project proposal that outlines your project's motivating problem and workplan describing what you intend to accomplish to Dr. Szafir via email by Monday, 4.25 at 11:59pm (please send a single email per group with all group members CC'ed). This will take place of that week's reading assignment. I will provide you with guiding feedback for your project and a set of expectations based on this proposal.Please note that this is the latest deadline that I would like to see the proposal by. I'd recommend you submit earlier to give yourself more time to work on the final project. I will provide feedback for all proposals sent before the deadline within 24 hours.
You will be graded on both the artifacts you generate as part of this project and a project write-up. As stated above, expectations for the artifacts will be provided as feedback for your proposal.You should approach the write-up like a research paper. It should contain the following sections:
- A 1-paragraph abstract that summarizes your motivating problem, what you did, and what you found.
- An introduction that describes the motivating problem and why it's interesting or important.
- A related work section that summarizes research related to your project (minimum eight citations).
- A detailed description of your project and justifications for any design elements.
- A discussion of what you found.
The write-up should be a minimum of two pages using the IEEE VIS Poster Format: http://junctionpublishing.org/vgtc/Tasks/camera.html
As with Project 1, please email me a confidential post-mortem that outlines your roles, how you'd rate your own contribution, and how you'd rate the contributions of your teammates.
Final projects are due 11:59pm on 5.5; however, you will have a no-cost extension until 5.8 at 11:59pm. Note that due to University grading deadlines, late projects will not be accepted.Please upload all deliverables through GitHub Classroom. This includes any code, data, documentation, or write-up. If you have physical artifacts, please either reach out to me to set up an appointment to present your artifacts or submit an explanatory video and/or set of photographs.
