Topic outline

  • The project workshop is held on Mon 19 Oct 2020 at 13:00-15:45 online at https://aalto.zoom.us/j/62744925604

    Description

    The project work will focus on a subject chosen by the student, among a list of themes proposed by the teachers. 

    This is a reading exercise where a group of 1-2 students reads a selected research article related to the course theme. Based on the article, the group writes an essay of 3-4 pages and prepares a 15-20 min presentation where the following four key points will be discussed:

    1. Objective: What is the goal of the research?
    2. Motivation: Why is the research worth carrying out?
    3. Results: What are the main results obtained?
    4. Evaluation: What is your own estimate of the usefulness of the results?

    Important dates

    • Tue 6 Oct 2020 12:00. You should email to the lecturer a copy of the article that you propose to read.
    • Mon 19 Oct 2020 13:00-16.00. Project workshop (online via Zoom) where presentations are given. You should email your written essay as pdf attachment to the lecturer.
    If you cannot attend the project workshop and give a presentation, you can compensate this by writing a longer essay of 6-8 pages.
