Feasibility Report Oral Presentation Grading Rubric

We will also discuss the Introduction to the Proposal and user stories on Monday night. Each team needs to present their user story paragraph in Webex for group and class discussion.

You will want to do 4 basic things in the Proposal Introduction:

1. State the purpose of the proposal (using a purpose statement)

2. Clearly establish the credibility of the team

3. Preview the proposal's parts -- explaining how it is put together and written (like a forecast for the reader)

4. Summarize the purpose of the introduction and make a smooth transition to the Technical Approach

You also will want to include pictures -- of the team, Mercer, your project, anything to help the reader visualize your writing.

Here are the two documents we'll use to discuss the Introduction:

PowerPoint Presentation about the Introduction -- it has a lot of text, counter to what I've taught you, but it contains excerpts of an introduction.

Grade sheet for the Introduction -- this is an informal rubric that will help you know if you are writing the Intro correctly.

Remember, a draft Introduction is due Sunday, July 8.

That's all for this week -- see you Monday night, July 2.
