Assignment 4: Project idea pitch

Points

These categories and point assignments are subject to change, but they should give you general sense of what we are looking for. On this assignment you will get an overall grade reflecting the overall impression the assignment makes (not specific points), but if you do everything mentioned below well (and your 1MM presentation was strong) you will do well. What is most important on this assignment is that you put thought into it and that you describe your idea clearly and professionally in a way that demonstrates that you are doing the reading and listening to class discussion carefully.
