“Project Progress Report: Contributions and Insights”

You need 15 pages. Everything doesn’t have to be in essay format, there can be bullet points in the essay as well. I have attached a notepad of things I have done personally for the project. Deliverable
Submit a coherent document describing your work on the project thus far, in a form roughly tracking what you intend to contribute to the final design document.
The key to this assignment is simple: Write about what you have done.You need less than a page a day even if you’re just starting now.
You should be doing enough work for that much text to be easy to generate!
This document must center around work that you have done and insights you have contributed.
You may not have substantive text in common with other students from your project.A paragraph of background per major section might be common with other students working on the same components, but that’s the extent of commonality that we’ll allow.
Otherwise you may reuse text from your own journaling, but not from other students’ work.
If you worked on the same area with another student, you must separate the work you did to write about it.
You need fifteen pages of substance.Graphics are fine, large sparse graphics are not.
Don’t waste space on things like large logos. The logos of the technologies you’re using look cool, but 1″x1″ (if they’re all on one line) or 0.5″x0.5″ (if they’re in a list) is more than enough.
Most graphics must be quarter-page at most, with half-page reserved for very complex figures or screenshots with a lot of information.
Don’t include source code without a good reason–and there’s no good reason to include more than small chunks.
You may not have large amounts of whitespace for a section break – bring the section onto the page or edit previous paragraphs to let the section break fall within the last quarter of a page.
This document does not have to be in its final form.Items may be incomplete or still need editing – after all, the project will still need work done after this semester.
Mechanics do not need to be perfect, but the document needs to be coherent and easy to read – page-long paragraphs and incomprehensible grammar will result in a re-submission requirement or a low grade.
As a guideline, the document does not have to be in a form that could be submitted to a conference or a journal, but it does have to be in good enough form that you would be comfortable posting it to a public Web page.
Mechanics
Don’t ignore this space in future assignments – we will impose additional mechanical requirements as your submissions become more formal over the length of the course. Right now, we’re keeping it simple.
All documents for this class should use:
11 or 12 point font
Times New Roman, Verdana, Calibri, Aptos, or another “normal” fontSome descendant of either Times or Helvetica
Don’t use novelty, fancy, or memetic fonts
Your word processor’s default is fine, don’t overthink it
1″ margins
1.5x line spacing
Reasonable standard written English mechanicsWe are not grading this as a composition paper, but…
…any errors must not be so distracting as to get in the way of reading the document
If your mechanics or document design get in the way of reading the document, you may be asked to resubmit or receive a low grade
Graphics must only be as large as they need to beInclude a numbered caption for each graphicUse your word processor’s reference mechanism to avoid needing to renumber it later
Simple graphics like logos must be a maximum of 1″x1″, or 0.5″x0.5″ if part of a list
Simple diagrams and screenshots must be quarter-page
Complex diagrams and screenshots may be half-page (if you’re not sure whether it’s complex, it’s not)
Submit the document as a PDFAny word processor is acceptable – Word, Pages, Google Docs, LibreOffice, even LaTeX are all fine…
…but your actual submission must be a PDF, not .docx, .odf, .pages, etc.
