    • icon for activity Assignment 3: Empirical evaluation results
    • icon for activity Assignment 4: Final presentation slides

      Upload here the slides about your group's final presentation.

      Short instruction for the presentation: Your 10-minute presentation should focus on your research process: how you narrowed down your problem to manageable research questions, how you chose your methods, how you focused your expert evaluation and empirical evaluation, etc. Telling about the process will help you learn from each other's presentations. Tell also something about your findings, but don't attempt to cover all of them.

      The presentation will earn you max 5 points, and it will be based on your presentation, not these slides only. 

      The final report will be max 15 points.
