CMPT 418 Project For the class project you have to work in groups of 2 people. You have to design and launch some social software to support some form of group interaction. It can be software supporting a group of students, a group of friends, your mom and her class or club. You can choose any platform you wish – the Web, Facebook, mobile devices like iPhone or Pocket PC, or even a kiosk (computer in a shared space). One firm requirement is that whatever project you come up with has to be used by other CS students. Deliverables and Deadlines: Team formation Project proposal – 2 pages describing: the main idea and functionality, the technology that will be used, how it will be tested, work plan with assigned responsibilities to group‐members and milestones Mid‐project milestone report – 1 page describing: the status of the project: what has been achieved, difficulties, problems solved, remaining steps Project presentations Final project report – 5 pages describing: the main idea and functionality, technology used, social computing issues or techniques used, the architecture of implementation, results from testing (e.g. statistics, user statements), a reflection on how obstacles were resolved and what could have been done better if you would have to do the project again. Also work division among the team members (who was responsible for what).
