For example, if the roll nos 2011010, 2011011 and 2011012 have done a project in group they will prepare a single report, but the same report must be uploaded by each of the students during submission. The report should be saved in either doc/docx or pdf format. The file should be simply named: projectreport.docx/pdf

It should be obvious that for group projects each student should prepare his/her own individual presentation video. The video should contain the following in sequence. Since there will no separate viva hence complete seminar(100 Marks) and viva marks(100 marks) will be based on this video presentation, so prepare this with utmost dedication. Wherever possible, be in Uniform during the recording, if not possible be dressed sensibly.

• i) First give your introduction (should contain your Name, Univ Roll No, Branch-Specialization). If it is a group project take the names of your project partners
• ii)Tell about the title of the project and the guide
• iii)Speak about the evolution of the project throughout starting from conception. How and why you chose the project, how you progressed, (Imp: If you have changed project and/or groups you have to speak about this too; example-initially I has chosen this topic yyy, however before going for development we faced yyy difficulties/my other partners went for yyy organizations and it was difficult for me to complete alone/etc, hence after discussion with my guide I chose this topic..). This part is very essential as it will capture the entire timeline of the project from inception to completion, you should give a lot of emphasis to this part.
• iv)If it was a group project talk about your specific roles and responsibilities. Briefly talk about the roles of your partners. Talk how did you collaborated in writing the report.
• v)Talk about the specific tools and technologies used in the project.
• vi)Give a demonstration of the project wherever possible. When it is not possible to demonstrate explain the working using suitable methods.
• vii)Talk about any testing you have performed.
• viii)Talk about the utility of the project
• ix)Conclude

4. Prepare the Report and Video Presentation well before the due date of submission to avoid last minute difficulties.

5. For any issues/queries regarding your project talk to your project guide. If you have any query that cannot be resolved at your supervisor’s end, please send an email to dibyahash.cse AT geu.ac.in with your query. For any personal difficulties during these trying times please contact your mentor or class coordinator for necessary guidance.
