Project presentation
evaluation
cs681
Where multiple choices are offered, circle one. Where numbers are offered, 5 is excellent and 1 is poor. You may leave items blank if you think you have insufficient information, but try not to do that very often.
Base your answers on what you find out from the presentation – ignore anything you happen to know from hallway conversations. The questionnaire is anonymous. Be honest – that will help your classmates more than uniformly high scores to make them feel good.
