Show & Tell

From UIDWiki

Jump to: navigation, search

Show and Tell is an activity at our weekly UID group meeting, in which everybody brings something relevant to share with the other kids. Here are examples of what to bring:

  1. a short demo of your latest research work (3 points)
  2. a report of your latest experiment (3 points)
  3. a new research idea that you'd like to pursue (2 points)
  4. a research paper, talk, conference, web site, or demo that's relevant to research in the group (2 points)
  5. a user interface that you implemented that's unrelated to your research (2 points)
  6. a new or interesting web site, UI, tool, paper, or idea you discovered, or a UI hall of fame or shame candidate (1 point)

The list above is roughly in order of preference -- showing off your own work is preferred to showing off other people's, and research is more important than personal projects, web sites, or commercial applications. We'll be keeping score using the point values shown above. (The rough guideline for assigning points is as follows: 3 points if you did it and it's research; 2 points if you did it and it's not research; 2 points if somebody else did it and some UID-group paper might reasonably cite it; 1 point otherwise.)

We go around the room, and each person has 2 minutes to present their show & tell. The Gong will strictly enforce time.

Anything you want to show on the projector needs to be linked from the wiki, because we don't want to waste time switching computers. If it isn't on the web or only runs on your computer, then take a screenshot or make a screencast.

Curious Histories of Generic Domain Names [21]
