You will write a review on another student’s project and presentation, due by Tuesday April 12th, 2022. I have assigned someone's work to you for review. You are requested not to exchange with the author at any point in the process of writing the review, and I trust that you do so.
Please submit your review in plain text as a PDF file. Your classmate will never see your review. Your review should be 2 pages maximum and should contain the following:
- Give a brief synopsis of the objectives, the methodology and the significance of the work in your own words to show that you have read the work properly and carefully attended the presentation.
- Summarize your overall impression in one to two sentences.
- Comment on anything that you think deserves special praise or that requires attention. Is there anything you disagree with? Anything you did not understand? You may refer to the rubric for the project and presentation so that you know what you could look out for. Include at least one strong point of the work and suggest at least one opportunity for improvement.
- Remember to be specific (refer to line numbers, equation numbers, paragraphs or cite what you are commenting on) and constructive (state why you think some aspect is particularly effective or make a suggestion on how it could be improved). Try to be constructive when phrasing your comments such as ‘the author could provide ...’, ‘I suggest to clarify how ...’, ‘Could the author add ...?’.
- Final comment: What did you find most interesting? Or do you have any additional idea for future research or possible applications?
