Midterm assignment

The midterm assignment is to update your team's wiki pages and for each individual to write a paragraph documenting your contribution to the AguaClara project. Before you begin check out the latest suggestions at the wiki style guide.

Midterm Wiki

Wiki Organization

Each team wiki page needs to be thoroughly organized and updated using the guidelines given below.

Research Teams

Add sections for all new experiments that have been run so far and any results the team has. Also make sure to update the introduction, goals, and conclusions as needed. If your team is designing new apparatus, then document your design process including

  • design assumptions (basis of design)
  • drawings that clearly show how the apparatus will be constructed
  • equations that are used to solve for the parameters

If you developed new analytical tools describe the basis of the tools and illustrate how those tools are used to extract meaning from the data.

Design Teams

Create detailed documentation of your design process. For each element of the project (for example the dimensions of the sedimentation tank or the diameter of the effluent launder) include

  • all of the design assumptions (basis of design)
  • the equations that are used to solve for the parameters
  • a brief description of the solution process
  • drawings of the plant where those drawings would help clarify the design process.

Individual contribution documentation

Add a paragraph to your personal page describing your contribution to the AguaClara project this semester. Your personal page can be accessed by typing your NetID in the search field or by following the link from your NetID in the table of Team Members Fall 2008.

Currently, each personal page lists all pages created by that individual. At the top of you personal page add a paragraph explaining what you have worked on for the first half of the semester. If you have created new wiki pages, or updated old wiki pages to explain experiments performed, to document design work, etc, place links to those within the paragraph explanation.
