Preparation:
Think about those two questions:

What did you learn in this course?
What does it take to succeed as a student at U C Berkeley?

Warm-up:

Have some answers ready for the above two questions.

Feedback on Project Presentations

Good use of PowerPoint! Often very nice visuals!
Now you just need to learn how to connect whatever computer you have to a projector
(Some times there is only a VGA port -- you need to bring the converter dongle).
Always also bring your presentation on a stick, that could be inserted into the installed computer.
(PowerPoint presentations typically work smoothly -- except when you have embedded video).

Two more steps for you to pass CS39R:

Presentation of revised "Elevator Speeches"

Your 1-minute oral summary should now contain the most important findings of your project.

A brief written report about your project (due before Saturday, May 7, midnight).
Summarize in 2 to 4 pages that issue you studied in your project and your most important findings.
Re-use some of the (color) images that you had in your PowerPoint presentation.
Make this a suitable handout to carry in your "Portfolio" when you need to explain what you did at UCB.
E-mail me a PDF file.

What did you learn in this course?

What does it take to succeed as a student at U C Berkeley?

Some "Meta-Skills" I hope you learned in this course.

Some discussion about the 4th dimension and its "Platonic Solids".
