Getting started on presentations

By the end of the week 6 lab period, complete the following:

• Select a design pattern to present. See the notes page for the list of patterns to be covered. You can select a design pattern from the textbook, but you can also select design patterns from various online catalogs (just search for "catalog of design patterns" or something similar).
• Create the (private) group repository following the specified pattern. If you are not using GitHub Classroom, ensure your instructor has (at least) write access.
• Obtain approval for your demonstration project. Do not use a project obtained from the internet or a textbook; it needs to be your own construction so you obtain useful experience with the pattern.
• Create an initial implementation of the project.
  • This first version would not necessarily be working, but it should be set up so that team members can complete their portion outside of class.
  • The project files are to be checked in to your repository with the src directory at the top level.
  • Check in the presentation (as a Powerpoint, PDF, or equivalent) at the top level.
  • Place resources for the presentation in a subdirectory.
• Write an outline for your presentation, likely in the presentation document or the project README. Ensure your outline is consistent with the presentation requirements. In particular, note that you are encouraged to find applications of the pattern in industry (either to solve software engineering problems or to support AI tools).
• Assign team members to complete the remaining work. Document this in a file checked in to the repository with an obvious name; the README can certainly work. Be sure to include first and last names in this document!
