2 sample projects from 2017:
PLEASE NOTE:
– The Assignment is very different this time.
– Last year they had to include what was Project 2 this year in this assignment- so it has a lot more content.
– They had far less time and zero input on the zoom studies so they are far more sketchy and short than this year’s projects.
PROJECT 2: Analyzing the Green Network and Fabric
Deadline: Teams will present their projects on either February 25 or 27. PDFs of presentations to be submitted to canvas on February 27.

NOTE: The teams were four people; the sites were larger; they had to do more analysis; these are not necessarily the strongest nor weakest projects and you will find some errors.
