Milestones, Benchmarks, and Deliverables
As you work on your project, you will be required to present periodic reports on your progress. We call these Milestones. All the items assigned in each Milestone are called deliverables. These deliverables often consist of a combination of written submissions, presentations, and demonstrations.
Preliminary Design Investigation
The Preliminary Design Investigation (PDI) is extremely important, as it lays the groundwork for your project. You will be outlining your project idea, inspiration, and goals.
The PDI must include:
- Cover Page
- Project Overview
- Goals & Objectives
- Design & Approach
- Cost Estimate
- Project Schedule
- Relevant Pictures
An example PDI template can be found here. The PDI is due by Benchmark A. Do not forget to include the items listed above. Use this link to access the VEX PDI Rubric.
