Deadline Long Exercise (part 1)

OK. This is it. Again.

Next Monday 5 November, at 12.00 o'clock, every student must have his/hers documentation ready to be presented to the rest of the Unit. This means:

a) Diagnosis Spiral-bound book A-3, ready to be handed in after oral presentation (remember you'll be assessed for the quality of your work. So be careful and take your time to select the most appropiate lay out, to print, to complete information, to conclude, etc.)

b) 3D [Model+Map] on the center table of our classroom (digital models should be printed on an independant panel apart from the A-3 diagnosis book mentioned before. Anyway, we insist in our recomendation: physical models).

c) .ppt oral presentations lodged on classroom's computer (remenber 3 minutes. We'll try to be stict with this point. Prepare yourself, prepare what you are going to say and how you are going to say it.)

As we are still quite a few, again,  we'll make groups of five students that will present their work, and after they've finished, Joaquín and I will briefly comment yours proposals.

Remember: Incomplete or out of time proposals will be penalished in our assessment. So take your time and complete each of the three demands made for this part of the exercise.

You might have noticed we like to publish some general numbers about how the Unit is working. Each one of you might extract his/her own conclusions. Here they are:

Students in Unit: 38

Medium assistance during exercise: 76,8%

Days dedicated to comment individually students proposals: 4
Students with 0 presentations of their work in progress: 14
Students with 1 presentation of their work in progress: 14
Students with 2 presentations of their work in progress: 9
Students with 3 presentations of their work in progress: 1

Proposals pre-assessed as highly relevant: 7

What is most surprising is that there are 14 students, something like nearly 40% of the Unit, that have presented nothing at all during these last weeks. We don't even know what site they are planning to work on! Amazing.

Dealing with sites, your final selection points out Castellón as your favorite. These are your choices:
No choice at all: 14 students ????
Castellón Airport: 12 students
Seseña Residential Development: 6 students
Niemeyer Center Avilés: 6 students

Today we have supervised the proposals of 17 of you. It's been quite long and tiring for all of us. But we hope you have become aware of the differences between the work of those of you who try to work daily and present their ideas nearly every day, and those who don't. It's pretty obvious.

Anyway, good luck for everyone. Sharp at 12.00 on Monday, we start presentations.
