 schedule ASTR 5110 AMP Fall 2023: Final Project

Please email me your Project title and paper before class Fri 10 Nov. It will be posted here.

Please make a zoom recording to the cloud of your 10 minute presentation. Please email me the link that zoom will provide to you, no later than Fri 1 Dec (with no passcode please: the recording will be behind the CU firewall).

Note that your presentation in class will be 5 minutes (not 10) of presentation, followed by 5 minutes of q&a, for a total of 10 minutes.

Each presentation will have 3 reviewers, who will have primary responsibility for asking questions in the q&a portion of the in-class presentation. Please email me which 3 projects you would like to review. Your choices will be posted here. First come first served.

The Project will be graded according to rubric on the syllabus.
