ASSIGNMENT 12 (Due May 5)

Next class will be a dress rehearsal for the final presentation to the client.

Reminders for your presentations:

• Relate your project to what the client has said
• Divide up the speaking/showing – each group member must present an equal amount
• Have something to give to client after your presentation with your contact information
