Content
For this project, students work in groups. All groups have periodical meetings with their tutor, who is responsible for guiding the group and assessing individual participation of students. The project is divided into tasks. All groups must do all the tasks. Tasks can be theoretical (like report writing) or practical (like implementation or presentation). Each task has its own deadline and deliverables. The final project grade is a combination of the grades for each task, considering individual participation.
