Week 8 presentation: In-person to a wider audience

Posted by Chun Tung Chou 4 days ago, last modified 4 days ago.

We have written to you earlier this week on Week 8'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 17 July (Week 7) so that we can announce an initial schedule by Friday of Week 7.

Thesis A Presentation Guide

Posted by Jing Hsu 4 days ago.

Dear Thesis A Students,

In Week 8, you are required to give a presentation about your thesis progress. Please schedule a time in Week 8 for the presentation 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 presentation so that you can get more feedback.

You can do the presentation on-site or online .However, we encourage you doing the presentation on-site .

For online presentation, we recommend Microsoft Teams which is included in UNSW office 365 and can be login by using your zpass.

Key facts about your presentation:

• Worth 25% of your Thesis A final result.
• Follow the Marking Criteria and Assessment Components to prepare your presentation .
• Organise the time/date yourself with supervisor and assessor
• A 45-minute demonstration about your Thesis A topic and the plan (including talk/demo, Q&A, debrief with supervisor/assessor)
• Submit the presentation slides on TMS by 10pm 27th July 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.

One IMPORTANT thing to note:

If you cannot find a suitable time to do the presentation 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. Thanks.

Good luck with the presentation.

Regards,
Dr. Jing Hsu, CSE Thesis Admin
