App Concept. The scientist is responsible for conceiving and communicating the app concept. The app concept is communicated in the 1/17/2023 - 1/18/2023 meeting with teams and refined during the 1/24/2023 - 1/25/2023 follow up meeting with teams. I will schedule these meetings with the scientists before the semester begins. I have two suggestions when conceiving app ideas:
1. The app should be as simple as possible and clearly stated in one or two sentences. Complicated apps, apps with many options cannot be completed in single semester. Apps that cannot be concisely explained will not be understood by the teams and gathering all the requirements will be difficult.
2. Before the semester, the scientist and I will meet so that I can understand your app idea and assure that it is appropriately defined for the courses. This meeting typically takes one hour. I will need your contact information before the semester begins and a brief description of the app, so the teams will have the material to select apps and contact scientists. I will need a document with:
1. Scientist Name
2. Scientist Title (description of your scientific expertise.)
3. Email address
4. Phone number (Only to be used as backup for conferencing.)
5. Office address
6. Preferred medium for meetings (e.g. in-person and room number, Zoom meeting, or phone.)
7. Descriptive App Name (This is not necessarily the name that the students will give the app.)
8. Paragraph description of app The paragraph description of the app is not a description/specification of the design; rather it should motivate the app and give the general idea of the app. You can use last year's app description as examples, found at: xxxxx://xx0000.xxx.xxx.xxx/2022/scientists-and-applications/ I will schedule the meetings with the teams and arrange for the meeting venue for the first two meetings with student teams and scientists. This can be a regular phone, conference phone, skype, google hangout or other software. The rest of the meetings for the semester will be schedule and arranged by the student teams. I would like this document before winter break, 12/11/2022.
App Concept. The scientist is responsible for conceiving and communicating the app concept. The app concept is communicated in the 1/18/2022 - 1/19/2022 meeting with teams and refined during the 1/25/2022 - 1/26/2022 follow up meeting with teams.

App Concept. The scientist is responsible for conceiving and communicating the app concept. The app concept is communicated in the 1/22/2015 meeting with teams and refined during the 1/26/2013 follow up meeting with teams.

5. Conferencing Number or ID (If the scientist is to use conference number, skype etc.)
6. Office address
7. Descriptive App Name (This is not necessarily the name that the students will give their app.)
8. Paragraph description of App The paragraph description of the app is not a description/specification of the design; rather it should motivate the app and give the general idea of the app. I have attached a document with last year's app descriptions to use as examples. For scientists not at Michigan Technology University, I will arrange the venue for conducting meetings with the teams. This can be a regular phone, conference phone, skype, google hangout or other software. I would like this document before winter break, 12/13/2014
