After seeing these wonderful presentations, although some may have not been and have taught me what not to do for my presentation next year, I have learned many new things about a wide variety of topics, but it still leaves me with questions about senior project itself.
- What is the actual day to day work that we have to do for senior project? Do we have to fill out papers? Logs?
- What components do we have to do senior year? As I do not recall any mentioning any components.
From watching the presentations I have had a chance to think about what is important to a successful presentation. I feel that in order to have a successful presentation, you must be prepared and have meet all of the P requirements.
Watching these presentations has made me think about what topic I will do next year for my presentation, and so far this list is as follows.
- Quantum Computing because I LOVE (<3, 143! 143!) anything that has to do with quantum physics, and if you put that together with computers, which I also love as much, you end up with my #1 topic.
- Robotics because I find that it will be an interesting topic to learn about and present.
- Space Exploration, I love space, and therefore this is my backup topic.
- Programming because I really want to do programming, but I have to find a way to make it interesting and fun, and I'll probably have to choose something more specific than "Programming".
