Dear Thesis C Students,

In Week 8, you are required to give a demo of your thesis project. Please schedule a time in Week 8 for the demo with your supervisor and assessor. Although no other attendees are required, it is good to have relevant people who are interested in your project, to attend your demo so that you can get more feedback.

You can do the demo on-site or online .

For online demo, we recommend Microsoft Teams which is included in UNSW office 365 and can be login by using your zpass. You can also discuss with your supervisor and assessor to choose another online meeting software, such as skype, google meeting, and zoom…

Key facts about the demo:

• Worth 10% of your Thesis C final result.
• Please follow the Marking Rubric and Assessment Components (listed in week 8 section) to prepare your demo.
• Organise the time/date yourself with supervisor and assessor
• A 45-minute demonstration about the final outcome of your thesis (including talk/demo, Q&A, debrief with supervisor/assessor)
• Submit the demo slides in TMS by 10pm 5th Nov Sunday Week 8 . If you cannot submit it by the deadline due to some valid reasons, contact me for an extension ( supervisor approval must be provided ). You can also make an application through special consideration portal with support documents, such as medical certification.

One IMPORTANT thing to note:

If you cannot find a suitable time to do the demo in week 8, 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.

Regards,

Dr. Jing Hsu, CSE Thesis Admin
