You may be asking yourself:

Question:  “What do I need to do ahead of the next Graduate Research seminar?”
[[ThesisTTD]]


Answer: “Two things: write a concrete proposal and make a prototype or experiment relating to said proposal”.


Recap: you are all pretty strong on analyzing the method you use and all of you have something interesting to read and write about, so now you need to
== Latest draft thesis ==
A] write very practically about what you could make and how you would make it and place that at the beginning of your proposal (don't begin with abstract, theoretical things, the people assessing your proposal will first want to know what the project will be before they find out why it exists and the ideas behind it)  B] make something (a model or a small prototype) ahead of the next session (October 7).
