Week 11 presentation: In-person to a wider audience

Posted by Chun Tung Chou Wednesday 06 November 2024, 11:45:32 AM, last modified Wednesday 13 November 2024, 07:11:09 AM.

A reminder to fill in the Google forms to inform us about your upcoming Thesis B presentation:

----------

We have written to you earlier this morning on the Week 11's presentation. We recommend that you do it in-person rather than online. The minimum audience of your presentation is your supervisor and assessor, but it will be good if you can deliver your presentation to a wider audience including other thesis students. It will also be great if you can attend other students' presentations .

In order that you can deliver an in-person presentation that other students can attend, we have reserved rooms in K17 for you to use or we can book a room for you. You can use the Google Forms link here (WebCMS3 login required) to:

1. Book a time slot in a room in K17 to do your thesis presentation
2. Ask us to book a room for you
3. Let us know the time and location of your presentation if you already have a room available

We will compile the information and announce a schedule so that you can attend other students' presentations. Although we are not making in-person presentation to a wider audience compulsory this term, we strongly encourage you to do it.

We ask you to provide the information to us by Thur 14 Nov (Week 10) so that we can announce an initial schedule on Friday of Week 10.

Thesis B demo in Week 11

Posted by Chun Tung Chou Wednesday 06 November 2024, 09:05:13 AM.

Dear Thesis B Students,

In Week 11, you are required to give a demo of your thesis project. We prefer that you do your demo face-to-face and include a wider audience (in addition to your supervisor and assessor) so that you can get more feedback. I will send out another notice shortly on arranging the demo.

Key facts about your demo:

• Worth 5% of your final thesis result.
• Please follow the Marking Rubric and Assessment Components to prepare your demo.
• Organise the time/date yourself with supervisor and assessor
• A 45-minute demo about the progress of your thesis (including talk/demo, Q&A, debrief with supervisor/assessor)

Submit the demo slides to TMS by 10pm 24th Nov Sunday Week 11 (firm). If you cannot submit it by the deadline due to some valid reasons, please contact thesis admin for an extension ( supervisor approval email must be provided ).

If you cannot find a suitable time to do the demo in week 11, you can do it later, but you MUST submit your slides by the due date. Otherwise, you will get the late penalty.

If you have further information to be included, please let me know. Thanks.

Thesis Management System (TMS) bug

Posted by Chun Tung Chou Monday 23 September 2024, 10:15:52 AM.

Dear 24T3 Thesis B students,

The Thesis Management System (TMS) has unfortunately gone buggy. If you log onto TMS, it will say that your Thesis B deliverable will be due In Nov, which is correct. But, it also says that you have an overdue deliverable which was due in August, which is a bug. This is to let you know that the issue is on our end, not yours.

I should be able to get the problem fixed once our support staff can resume work. My apologies for the problems.

Welcome to Thesis B!

Posted by Chun Tung Chou Tuesday 03 September 2024, 12:38:41 PM, last modified Tuesday 03 September 2024, 12:38:58 PM.

Welcome to Thesis B!

I hope you had a good break and are ready to get Thesis B started. Please send an email to your supervisor to find a regular meeting time so that you can resume your Thesis work.

There is only one deliverable for Thesis B: demo in week 11. Some useful resources at the Thesis B website are: marking criteria for Thesis B demo, sample Thesis B demo slides, etc.

It is important to point out that, although the deliverable is in Week 11, you will need to work steadily each week in order to complete the plan that you have made for Thesis B.

I will send a separate announcement in a moment on "How to write a good thesis" talk in Week 2.

All the best for your Thesis B!
