Technical Report & Project Evaluation

Technical Report
 Summary
o What does the report showcase?
o Why was it done?
o How was the experiment set up?
o How were results collected?
o What was included in the analysis and what does this tell us?
o What did the research suggest would happen?
o Main headline findings from results

 Introduction
o The problem
 Limitations of VR
 Why could AR be better?
o Duration of project
 Dates
 Project plan (put in appendix but mention here)
o Project Spec
 Aim of investigation
 What results will analysis will provide
 What do we hope to find
o Research Methodology
 Available papers and journals are reviewed
 What parts of literature are missing or lacking?
 What is being tested
 Where is it being tested
 Adequate training and risk assessments should be mentioned
 Participant data and consent forms
 What will analysis allow?
o Risk Management
 Controlling uncertainty and risks (Munier Risk Management book?)
 All forms completed
 Are risks quantified?
 Literature Review
o The need and availability of physios
o Is there a lack? How many people need physios in their lifetime?
o How many are graduating with qualifications?
o How many people have access to computers?
o

Project Evaluation
 Self-assessment against aims and objectives
 Self-assessment of project and time management (against project plan, evaluation of
tools)
 Self-assessment of ability to work reliably and effectively without close supervision
 Re-considered feasibility/impact of solution – technical, economic, managerial,
financial, cultural,social, safety, political, environmental and market feasibility
(referencing the original feasibilitystudy and offering an informed and updated
view);
 Cost-benefit analysis;
 Lessons learned for personal and project management, self-assessment against
professional engineering competencies and learning outcomes.
