Write Individual Project Summaries
Why do this?
This will help you organize the scope and requirements for the research project. By looking through your syllabus and identify, you will get the the big picture aspects of your research projects all at once. You can then bring them all together in the next step when you are creating your project plans.
How?
Look a the sample project summary below. Then download the template on this page.
Any gaps?
If you don't know or can't find the answer to any aspect of the project, now is the time to ask your professor for clarification. Planning ahead will reduce any surprises later on in the semester.
