Check-Up Presentations 

In this set of presentations you will be demonstrating the base
functionality of your entire system and explaining some Java code to
us. The GUI should be up, running and partially functional. Other
aspects of your system may still require development or bug fixes at
this time. After this presentation we will only have a couple of weeks
of class time to work on the projects, so it is time to really move
towards a final project.

Presentation:

You will be creating power point presentations and handing them in for
display on the website. Your slides should contain:

At least 2 class descriptions that you have created in Java. Include
the following information about each class.

  Explain the purpose of the object
  Explain any interfaces used by this object (implements)
  Explain how inheritance is used in this object (extends)
  Explain how this is perhaps reused or if it is used only once and why
  Explain the functions attached to your object
  Show some code related to your class that you feel is interest.

^These bullets do not all need to appear on separate slides at all.

For your last couple of slides, simply include some screen shots of
the current progression of your system. In class, however, a live demo
will be expected of your project.  Demonstrate the GUI and which
pieces are working. Related these back to your slides where possible.

This presentation includes a LOT of information. You will be
constrained to 5 minutes however, so practice your presentation, keep
an eye on the clock and use your time wisely. It is quite easy to
spend 5 minutes on some demos, so you'll need to track your
pace. There will be time for questions and thoughts from the audience
as usual.
