Optional assignment: Capstone Group Blog Post

This is an optional activity that does not contribute to grades or assessments.

GUIDELINES HERE

The idea is to adapt your final Capstone presentations into blog post you can add to your personal website. This is an opportunity to coordinate to showcase their Capstone project and experience!

The course will offer this coordinated timeline for students who want to participate in giving and receiving feedback to others writing their Capstone blog posts:

  • Week 10: Teams adapt their public presentation into a co-authored blog post for their personal websites.

  • Week 10, Friday 6/5: Teams submit their blog post to receive peer and instructor feedback.

  • Finals Week, Wednesday 6/10: Teams receive feedback from instructor and students who are also writing a blog post.

You are not required to submit a final version of their blog post after receiving feedback.
