The purpose of the project outline is to encourage you to start planning early, and to give me an opportunity to give you feedback on your project early on. Mainly I need to know who, what, how? Grading scheme.

• Who is in your group? 5%
• What is the topic/task you would like to work on? The project should be substantive enough for a final course project but also feasible within reasonable time limits. This can be a tricky balance to achieve, which is why I would like to give you feedback early. 20%
• How do you plan to approach your topic/task? 40%
• Have you surveyed course readings/material that are relevant to your project? 20%
• Have you surveyed additional literature that is relevant to your project? E.g., baseline methods. 15%

The marking scheme covers these aspects and is shown on courses.cs.sfu.ca .
