The team report, in hardcopy or PDF (named Team_Name_Report.pdf)
should cover the following items:
- Team report in hardcopy (at least 5 pages, must be well-written
and free of spelling and grammar errors.)
- Identify team name, team leader, team members, and CS or VCD
- The first section of the team report is the final task distribution
list itemizing the tasks actually performed by each team member.
This list should be detailed to enable instructors to evaluate
individual efforts.
- Introduction --- what is your project all about
- Project Objectives --- what are your projects goals, problems to
solve, and results to achieve.
- Design --- what is the design solution and why does it achieve the
objectives
- Features --- describe the visual design aspects, architecture features,
and programming techniques you wish to highlight
- Implementation --- what coding and CS techniques are applied to
achieve what goals. Specifically this section must include
the following subsections:
- XHTML features---explain what XHTML features you used
in your project that is worth mentioning, how your XHTML code
was created and modified.
- CSS features---explain what style sheet features you used,
and how they support the look-and-feel of your site. List all
the CSS style files of your site (name and content).
