Assignment 9: Optional Assignment: All Downhill From Here

Due Tue Nov 27 by 9PM

This is a TEAM assignment.

This is an optional assignment. Your grade on this assignment will replace any other grade for the term except the final project grade.

The assignment is simple. Turn in your project app as it is on Tuesday.

Make the case for why all the most challenging parts of your project are done and it is "all downhill from here" for turning it in at the end of the term.

Turn in:

• Your updated app on the Play Store
• An email justifying why it will be smooth sailing from here to a stellar project based on what you turn in. In particular, please make a bullet list of things that remain to be done, prioritized by expected difficulty
• List the phone models you have tested your idea on
• Your updated Git repository on Bitbucket
• Indicate which assignment grade each team member would like this grade to replace (assuming it is a higher grade). This choice be changed later if one of the grades has not yet been received from the instructors. You can indicate a specific assignment grade or just indicate the lowest grade. This cannot replace the final project grade.

Grades will be assigned as follows:

• A: Hardest parts of app sufficiently well done to make the case it's a lot of work but definitely doable to get to an terrific final app.
• B: Hardest parts of the app appear to be coming together, but there were some rough edges.
• C: Hardest parts of the app have many problems or seem to be missing from the app at this point.

Important note: A high grade on this assignment does not guarantee a high grade on the final project. The assumption is that much work will take place between this assignment and the final project and that work will be critical to making the final app meet the course guidelines. This assignment will primarily address whether there appears to be technical progress, not the overall quality of the project app and the user experience, which will be evaluated for the final project in addition to the technical complexity.

One member of each team should send an email with subject line "Assignment9". The email should include the names of both team members and the information requested above. Please send to both Elica and ...@neu.edu.
