Hey guys,
So after looking at the list, almost everyone can make it on Thursday at 8.15pm. I will get back to you within the next two days about the location, (most probably the same room as Lab) but I will need to talk to our TA and see if she can reserve it.
So for now, just make sure that you keep Thursday evening free and start working on your presentation. To make it easier, I have added a google slides link so you can make the presentation on that, so we don't have to worry about making sure everyone has the most recently edited copy of the presentation.
Link to slides: https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/198scVEw7DCos-WxTL4k33Yhtj9FUBthEdhh…
Note: The idea of a design review is to present the work you have done so far to all those who will be there on the day. The presentation should be designed in a way where all three teams can finish presenting within 1.5 hours or less, and open floor for questions and answers. The best way to go about it is to think of the reviewers as people who have no idea what is going on with your project, and your presentation should be able to give them a good overview of what it's about. The idea isn't to be very technical or specific, but rather be informative and simple, and yet be able to relay all the work you have done so far in an interesting manner.
Teams, also make sure that your design specifications are coming along. This document is something that will be handed over to everyone present, and it should be detailed and thorough. Don't try to make it at the last moment as you will tend to miss out on important bits.
Let me know if you have any questions. If you have no idea about what the presentations should look like, please make sure you go through SharePoint and see previous semesters' design reviews. Our most recent design reviews can also be found on the website.

Hi everyone,
Please click on this link, and fill in the times you're available so that we can figure out which day works the best. We are looking at approximately 2 hours to finish (+/- based on how prepared we are) and so make sure that you have a comfortable time gap so you don't have to leave halfway through.

Hi all,
There has been a bit of confusion about what PDH new students should be doing this week. ALL new students, not just those in ENGR 133, should be watching the playlist EPICS Ethics Module on Youtube and submitting attendance through MyEPICS.
My apologies for the confusion,
Andrew

Hey guys,
I am so sorry for the delay. We still have a lot of communication issues around and I was focusing on that, forgetting to send the link.
So I have decided that it will be much more practical to use the same link so we don't run into this issue again.
After every PIGS, I will download the copy of that PIGs and delete the slides online, so it resets and you guys can use the same template for the next week.
So go ahead and bookmark the link so you can use it for the entire semester.

I will follow up with the newsletter later.
Cheers,
Rahul
