Individual Project Report Addendum

As an honors student, your final report will go beyond presenting your individual project. Here you will reimagine your project as though it were a team-based project similar to the Python team project completed earlier in the semester. Your task is to design a complete plan for how a team of students could take your individual project idea and develop it over three weeks, organized into Checkpoint 1, Checkpoint 2, and a Final Demo.

To do this, you will need to break your project into smaller tasks.

• Checkpoint 1 should focus on foundational concepts and initial setup.

• Checkpoint 2 should build on that foundation with more complex functionality.

• The Final Demo should showcase the completed, fully implemented version of the project.

When deciding how to divide the work, consider starting with your user-defined functions as natural building blocks for assigning tasks and structuring progress.

Task Instructions

1. Download the template honors_ip_ind_username.docx and save it as honors_ip_ind_username.pdf. Be sure to replace username with your Purdue username.

2. Refer to the rubric in the table below to guide you in crafting your addendum to meet the grading criteria.

3. Submit as honors_ip_ind_username.pdf on Gradescope.
