Team projects are the central experience in SP.722. This year, five projects were undertaken. For each project, this page presents videos of two design review presentations and a practice run for the Museum of Science presentation, slides for the second design review, and the final project report. All work is presented here courtesy of the authors and used with permission.
Design Reviews
Teams go through two design review sessions during the term. These sessions include a 15 minute presention to D-Lab students plus some invited MIT and outside guests, followed by about 10 minutes of question and answer discussions.
Guest reviewers included:
Museum of Science Presentation
